Bio

A fun life and lucky to have all my travel stamps to prove it. During 8-5, I'm pushing boundaries and finding a sweet spot to sprinkle inspiration with the hope for my team to reach even further than I imagined. Not a believer in micromanagement and fortunately have a team that gets that too. I always find a way to keep close contact with helping eyes. Funny how my team usually anticipate my questions as I can be obnoxiously detailed. It's a curse.

Ambitiously sweating with Supergirl in a gender equality department of two. Reporting to a broader team and extention of same goal-orientated leaders overseeing all aspect of hospitality & business management, proudly with having “Yes I Can” principles. Aiming to inspire others and to achieve greatness, whatever that might mean for you specifically.

Currently, in this senior role with developing markets and objective as Marketing Manager, Africa, I report on all Africa Marcomm and proudly specialise in new hotel openings, planning, strategy, branding, reputation management, campaign activations, community management, analysis and loyalty, B2C & B2B, either digital or for some of my markets, a more traditional approach.

I’d like to think that I am an inspirational coworker and leader who’s always switched on and a step or two ahead. An asset to my employer too. I have great admiration for my direct manager who keeps me in check and two steps ahead of me. Unafraid to learn on the daily.

With my forever expanding net to grow geographic in MEA while keeping a ferm footprint in Africa. I’m passionate about creative thinking & people development, music, tech and innovation.

Proud of my latest achievement to graduated with NFQ7 qualification from the Red & Yellow Creative School of Business majoring in Advanced Digital Marketing & Communications.

South Africa is my home but my heart keeps longing for new adventures and finding unfamiliar destinations.

I am working directly with English, French and Arabic speaking individuals and even though I’m still a beginner in broadening my language skills, I always ask for expert help if I have content that needs translating ;) Merci!

Have I used up my character limited yet? If you have made it this far, congratulations 🎉
