• Writing- For the past six months, I've been employed in the Rhodes Communications Division as a writer. During this time, I've authored a total of eight articles, six of which have been published on the Institution's website. My role involved attending events and recording the statements made by various contributors. Subsequently, I was responsible for transcribing the audio materials collected at these events and crafting a compelling angle and title for the story. Being a writer at the Rhodes Communications Division demanded excellent time management skills and a high degree of thoroughness in my work.
• Photography- I was responsible for photographing various events assigned to me at Rhodes Communications. Throughout my tenure with the organization, I honed and developed significant photography skills.
• Audio- I would take great audio material that I would listen to later on when I would transcribe it from audio form to putting it on paper. 
• Videography- I also was assigned as a social media person at the intervarsity and I took pictures for them for both social media and also some that they would store in their archives.

I recently completed my Honours degree in Journalism and Media Studies at Rhodes University. Throughout my undergraduate studies, I pursued dual majors in Journalism and Drama, complemented by minors in Legal Theory, Accounting, and Isixhosa for Journalism. This multidisciplinary background has equipped me with a diverse skill set, combining the art of storytelling with a solid foundation in legal principles, financial acumen, and proficiency in Isixhosa. I am eager to apply this unique blend of expertise in a professional setting as I embark on my career journey.
