What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my communication and research skills in a dynamic environment, fostering cultural engagement and educational initiatives.

I am a dedicated professional with a Master’s degree in Humanities (Liberal Studies) from Anglo-American University, specializing in Philosophy (Aesthetics). My thesis, titled “Suspension in Hell, Abundance of Light: The Afropessimist Aesthetics of Lesego Rampolokeng,” reflects my deep engagement with cultural studies. My academic journey has been enriched by my double majors in Sociology and Philosophy from Monash South Africa, where I also received certificates of merit for my achievements.

Currently, I am working as a freelance communication contractor for Núcleo de Arte, where I promote cultural activities and enhance public visibility. My previous experiences include private tutoring, substitute teaching, translation and transcription, and interning at the Museum of National Art, where I gained valuable insights into various departments. I am passionate about using my skills to contribute positively to cultural and educational initiatives.
