Impact Strategist, Head of Business Development, and Ultra Trail Runner in Cape Town, South Africa

Listen to my music

From 2009 to 2019 I've sharpened my strategic, creative and business skills in the advertising industry in Cape Town. I've had the privilege of working on some of the biggest local and global brands, spanning multiple industries and categories in South Africa, as well as East and West Africa.

I'm currently on a mission to figure out how I can use these super powers for good. I know that making a positive contribution to the stream of life is something I simply have to do. I have a new found passion to empower those around me and strive for equal opportunity at all cost.

As Head of Business Development & Portfolio Operations and a member of the management team at 17 Triggers Consulting, I steer the organisation strategically to find the right projects and partners, and assist our teams to implement projects effectively and efficiently to deliver the greatest impact to the most vulnerable people in society.
