I have a passion for playing football, having grown up playing for many different teams such as; Panorama, ETS and Tuks, I have developed not only my athletic skills but also my ability to work as part of a team. One of my proudest moments in my footballing career would be representing Tuks in the 2023 Kearsney College Tournament, which took place in Durban where we finished as silver medalists. I pride myself on being a good listener and am always eager to learn. I enjoy working with people and forming new friendships as well as taking up leadership positions. My leadership abilities were recognized when I was elected prefect for Tukssport High School in 2022, a role that allowed me to further develop these skills and contribute positively to my school community.

I am currently a student studying Computer Sciences, with a strong interest in data analytics. My goal is to acquire a job in this field and eventually become a data scientist, where I can leverage my skills in analyzing complex data to drive meaningful insights and decisions. Pursuing a role that presents professional challenges and leverages interpersonal skills, effective time management, and problem-solving expertise.
