Biography
I am a qualified journalist with radio, print and digital experience. My journey began at a community radio station in my first year of Journalism and Media Studies. I worked in IT support and taught ESL before graduating. After graduating, I was able to participate in a learnership at The Post before interning at the Sunday Tribune. While interning, I found permanent employment at Briefly News where I started as a UGC writer. I then worked as the Current Affairs Desk Manager before moving to The South African. Following this, I spent time doing content editing at two international companies. I now work as the Digital Content Producer for the Drive Show on East Coast Radio. Aside from my work in journalism and the digital landscape, I have performed as a musical artist at various events and done voice over work. I am also a mother, wife and netball player.
