English Literature
I am passionate about English language and literature- so much that I pursued a postgraduate degree in English Literature. I also worked as a first-year tutor at Wits for a year, teaching literature and helping students with their writing and comprehension skills.

Psychology
I find Psychology fascinating, and have acquired a wealth of knowledge and understanding of the field in my years of study. Beyond this, I have been part of research projects in Psychology as part of my postgraduate studies, so I have been exposed to real-life applications of psychological theories and principles.

Drama
I remained in the top 3 of the Dramatic Arts students throughout my high-school career, and once I completed high-school I helped matriculants from my high-school with their practicals and theory. I still frequent the theatre, and have a genuine love for the arts.
