Summary

Hailing from Paarl, I matriculated from Paarl Boys High in 2018, Thereafter I had the privilege of completing my undergraduate degrees at North-West University. Currently, I am in the process of completing my LLM in International Trade Law at the University of Cape Town.


To assist in funding my studies, I have worked during my holidays at Fairview Wine Farm. My experience in the wine industry has taught me to work under pressure and communicate effectively and clearly with national and international clients professionally.


Being Chairman of the NWU canoe club has left me in a leadership position of representing not only the University to the various unions in our country but also to ensure the growth of our beautiful sport.


My core values are honesty, integrity and compassion towards others. I am dedicated to a task and flexible enough to stand out as a leader or work together in a team.


I am able to work fully remotely if needs be and have my own reliable transport and valid driver's licence.
