Mathawe Matsapola
Mother, Editor, and Writer in Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa
I am a young and intelligent woman. Down to earth - but I am no walk-over! I am a team player and I speak my mind. I was born to lead, motivate, coach and serve other people. Like Scott Hamilton, I believe that the 'only disability in life is a bad attitude'. I started my career in 2005 as a consumer journalist, this is despite my background as a paralegal. Communication, writing and news gathering have always been important to me. I therefore equipped myself with a certificate of Journalism for Communicators from Wits University and currently enrolled for an LLB. I have also completed a DYNA CORE Management Supervisory Skills Programme. I have completed several management and leadership programmes through Solstice and Media24. Former Entertainment Editor for Daily Sun and Sunday Sun. And presently, the Deputy Editor for Drum Magazine. I also host DRUM Live and Move! Stokvel events. I produce and present DRUM's YouTube show called Unscripted. I am also passionate about health, beauty and fashion.
