Biography
I’m currently working as a journalist for a local newspaper - the Rising Sun Community Newspapers. I currently cover news pertaining to Chatsworth and Merebank. I also handle the video content for those areas. I do video editing for the Lenasia and North Coast publications as well, sharing those responsibilities with my colleagues from my branch. I have been working with technology ever since I was three years old and have developed a strong proficiency for, and grasp of both hardware and software, as well as their applications. This skill-set contributes towards my current roles as a journalist, videographer, photographer and video editor. I studied at Varsity College and continued my Bachelor's in Arts, with majors in Psychology and English Literature, at UNISA. I've done a variety of media, publishing and journalism modules, which have equipped me for reporting and writing. I've spent just over a year at the Rising Sun, which marks my entry into the working world. I aspire towards developing a vast and varied array of skills from journalism and reporting, to psychology, and computer sciences and programming.

Rising Sun Chatsworth
The Rising Sun Community Newspaper has become the voice and heartbeat of the diverse communities that it proudly serves with distinction and honour every week. Recognised as a brand that embodies a sterling reputation, credibility, and respect, the Rising Sun publications are delivered free of charge to homes and businesses bright and early every week. Residents throughout the areas within our footprint such as Chatsworth, Merebank, North Coast, Overport, Mid-South Coast in KwaZulu-Natal and Lenasia in Gauteng, and even beyond, can hardly wait to receive their weekly dose of news. The demand for newspapers became even greater at the onset of the lockdown imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. At a time when many print publications were forced to close their doors as the need to embrace all things digital was given credence, the Rising Sun newspapers continued to thrive and adapt accordingly to keep to our mandate of delivering to our loyal readers and advertisers. From news focusing on crime, community, municipal, school, and entertainment, the Rising Sun newspaper caters to every need and has rightfully earned itself the title of the community's number one community newspaper. Just like our printed copies, residents also look to our website to keep up-to-date on what's happening in their community, hour by hour.
