I am a Metallurgy and Materials Engineering graduate from Witwatersrand University. I also have a project management foundation qualification from UCT. I show passion and ambition in the work I do and I always aim for success. I enjoyed my high school years and I completed by national senior certificate with commendable results where I even obtained a distinction in my favourite subject mathematics. I also excelled in Physical Science, English, Tswana and Afrikaans. My results reserved me a seat in Witwatersrand University where I completed my dream course. I am also involved with mentoring and motivating high school learners in my community. I aim to teach with dedication and enthusiasm.
