Summary
I am a final year LLB student at the University of Pretoria, dedicated to acquiring new skills to foster my professional growth. Throughout my university journey, I actively engaged in diverse extracurricular pursuits, notably excelling in moot court competitions and contributing to community service initiatives. As a coach and judge in these moot court contests, I have honed invaluable proficiencies in research, writing, effective communication, and collaborative teamwork. I'm seeking an intern role to dive into the world of forensics and anti-money laundering. My goal is to gain expertise in legal and compliance management, using the skills I've developed. I'm excited to contribute and advance in this field.
