Cape Town, South Africa.
I completed my BcomPPE (Politics, Philosophy and Economics) at the University of Cape Town in 2013 and studied a Post Graduate Diploma in Entrepreneurship the following year. Through the course wee started a business called OHSO Eyewear Accessories whereby we designed and produced beauftiful fashion accessories through the community- with the aim of creating employment and using the informal skills of some of the many ladies in townships here in Cape Town.
I am always interested in finding new and exciting opportunities that incorporate social and entrepreneurial incentives. I am still involved in OHSO Eyewear Accessories and continue to attempt to create employment and wealth in our country. I beleive the key to the eliviation of poverty lies in our ability and desire to combine our entrepreneurial spirit with a social mission.
