Summary
My name is Khanimamba Carlo Ntshana, a dedicated and driven Actuarial Science student at the University of Cape Town (UCT). I matriculated in 2023 with distinctions in all seven subjects, including 100% in Mathematics, and was recognized as the top matriculant among North West independent schools as well as across all Curro schools under the NSC curriculum in South Africa. I was the Head of the Student Representative Council which not only refined my leadership abilities but also taught me the importance of discipline and teamwork which are values that continue to shape both my academic and personal growth. As a naturally curious individual, I’m constantly seeking ways to improve and challenge myself. I am driven by a vision to add value wherever I go and to make a meaningful social and economic impact both locally and globally.
