The gist:
- I have my Bachelor of Journalism and Media Studies from Rhodes University (2011)
- I have just returned from an 18 month copy writing working stint in Australia
- South Africa rules
- 2014 saw me backpacking through Europe, blogging about the experience here
- I have freelanced for major events like the National Arts Festival and Highway Africa
- I’m slightly more of a cat person
- I spent 2012 working at Grocott’s Mail where I gained experience in writing, photography and layout design. I also had two weekly columns in the paper, one dealing with cars (Driving With Desi) and the other with a lifestyle theme
- For some unknown reason I thoroughly enjoy open water marathon swimming
- I have written for two (now sadly defunct) online car publications, OverDriveDaily and Drive RSA
- I can sing all the lyrics of “We DIdn’t Start the Fire” off by heart
- I spent 2013 working at the Sustainable Seas Trust where I wrote copy for the website, wrote articles for various publications all over South Africa and photographed events
