My online journey began with a sink on swim concept after i started working at a Digital Agency in Pretoria in 2008. The online world was both fascinating and terrifying to start off with, but i soon fell in love with the wonders of the online world. Now, a self confessed online marketing junkie, I love watching the small guys get a chance against the big bully corporates out there and seeing entrepreneurship in it's rawest form turn into something great and successful; especially in South Africa. What is Online Marketing to me? It is talent and creativity meets technology with people as it's foundation and hard work and knowledge as it's building blocks.

I currently work as the Product Manager at Auto Mart. I graduated at the University of Kwa-Zulu Natal with a Bachelor in Social Sciences Majoring in Law and Marketing and have been in the online marketing industry for over 4 years.
