Bio

I am currently studying towards my Honours in Psychology and I am a qualified attorney. I have taught in South Africa and abroad and it has been such an enriching experience.

I enjoy helping people. This is the main reason I am currently studying Psychology. I am very approachable and therefore people are comfortable telling me about themselves and their lives. When someone speaks to me I make it a point that I give them my undivided attention. My ability to empathise with people makes me a very caring person and I want to help and am pleased when I am able.
