Message

At the City of Johannesburg, I coordinate intergovernmental relations across four portfolios, bringing policy research, governance forums and implementation tracking together. I contributed to the approval of the City's District Development Model One Plan in February 2026.

At Doctors Without Borders Southern Africa, I supported strategic partnerships through prospect research, due diligence and donor engagement. I researched and profiled more than 100 prospects, and contributed to a successful R1 million pitch to FNB for cholera outbreak support in Mozambique.

I also coordinated MSF Southern Africa's inaugural fundraising Golf Day, working across teams and with external stakeholders on planning, logistics and delivery. My work included maintaining project plans, tracking deliverables and coordinating supplier and sponsorship relationships.

At Old Mutual Limited South Africa, I produced a report on Namibian socio-economic conditions for executive decision-making. My research also includes public administration, governance and accountability, including a master's thesis on education policy implementation in the Eastern Cape.
