Message

At IMD Business School, I support international faculty and executive education activities, coordinating calendars, meetings, travel, and programme logistics across teams and time zones.

I prepare programme documentation, presentations, reports, and meeting materials, and use Salesforce and Canva as part of my current role.

At the University of Cape Town, I supported a multi-country research and capacity-building initiative, coordinating programme activities and engagement with researchers, funders, and institutional partners.

Earlier, I provided research and programme administration support at the Gender, Health & Justice Research Unit, University of Cape Town, and executive office and project support at the Western Cape Government: Department of Social Development.
