I started my career in the tourism industry and entered the world of sports marketing and sponsorship at the height of South Africa’s reign on world sports, at the start of the FIFA World Cup 2010.

I have over 10 years experience in Marketing. I am a strategic and creatively driven thinker with work experience in South Africa, West Africa and East Africa. In my most recent role as Account Director, my role involved management of events, sponsorship leveraging, digital marketing, working closely with influencers to execute influencer led campaigns, ambassador management, brand activation, project management and new business development.

I am currently pursuing a Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing Management at the IMM Graduate School. My goal is to complete the BPhil Honours in Marketing Management.
