What I'm looking for

I seek a people-focused role where I can leverage recruitment, sales, and communication skills to build relationships, contribute to growth, and develop professionally in HR or customer-facing functions.

I am a motivated, results-driven professional studying a BA in Industrial Psychology with Labour Relations at North West University, bringing hands-on experience in sales, recruitment, and content creation.

I have managed full-cycle recruitment, led outbound sales to U.S. clients, and served as a student ambassador representing EDUopinions on campus, consistently meeting targets and building long-term relationships.

My background includes content creation for broadcast and social platforms, event sales and volunteer coordination, and front-line customer service roles where I trained teams and managed operations.

I bring adaptability, strong communication, teamwork, and a passion for helping others, and I am eager to apply these strengths to roles that allow growth in talent management, sales, or people-focused functions.
