Some Background

My Life up until Now

I grew up in Johannesburg, South Africa. I went to Kingsmead College for high school and here I graduated in 2018 with 7 distinctions. Afterwards I embarked on an amazing gap year! I spent six weeks in Verbier, Switzerland, three months in Cape Town and two months in Seoul, South Korea. In Cape town I got multiple qualifications to be a deckhand as well as worked as a runner and research intern at a production company: Eye Force. Afterwards, in Korea, I lived with a host family for two months and studied Korean at Hanyang university. When I eventually came back to Johannesburg, I became a graphic design intern at Efficiency Advertising. I worked here for six months until I started studying at The Animation School. After graduating from TAS in March 2023; achieving a distinction for our final year short film Morsel; I began thinking about my next steps.

​

I decided I wanted to move to London! I moved here in May 2023 and started creating a life for myself. I began working in a guitar shop, Camden Guitars, in August and started running music workshops for WeJam in September. I was a sales person and basic guitar tech at the shop. For WeJam I ran a fun music based game in a studio and also, went into schools to run music workshops for year 4-6. Whilst having these jobs I was constantly thinking what I can do next to further my career. That is when I found my current course at Brunel University.

​

I am currently studying a BSc in VFX and Motion Graphics at Brunel University in Uxbridge. I am so excited to go into campus everyday and expand on my current skillset and improve the skills I already have. I look forward to where this chapter will take me in life!
