What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on communications role in sports where I can manage media relations, content delivery, sponsorship activations and event coordination while growing impact and leadership responsibility.

I am a sports communications and media specialist with broad experience across events, sponsorship activations, media liaison, content creation and digital reporting. I have supported high-profile properties including SA20, Nedbank Cup, Telkom Netball League and multi-sport university events, leading media logistics, interview coordination and match-day content delivery.

I consistently deliver measurable visibility and strong stakeholder relationships, having managed media teams, photographers and interns, executed nationwide school activations, produced press materials and handled sponsor obligations. I bring practical project coordination, analytics-driven reporting and hands-on event execution to boost brand perception and fan engagement.
