After one year of military service, I obtained a BA-Law Degree from the University of Johannesburg. I also had the wonderful privilege to travel the world as a Flight Attendant for 5 years. Travelling expanded my views and opinions in a significant way and left me deeply intrigued and respectful of all the beautiful cultures and people of our world. It also exposed me to life’s injustices and the hardships of too many people. As a young mother, I made a conscious decision to dedicate my life in service of those less fortunate.

In 2007 l started my journey in the NGO sector in South Africa where I gained immeasurable experience and skills as a frontline worker. I also had the immense opportunity to establish and manage a Not For Profit Organisation, Lesedi la Batho (www.lesedilabatho.co.za ; https://www.facebook.com/LesediLaBatho).

I have recently returned from a posting in Kyiv, Ukraine as the spouse of the Ambassador of South Africa.

During our posting, I completed two terms as president and one term as secretary of the IWCK Steering Committee.
