Bio

I am a 5th year medical student at Stellenbosch University, with a passion for surgery. I was born in Cape Town and attended high school here, however I spent my primary school years in Namibia.

The transition from primary school to high school was difficult for me, as it is for many others, but through hard work, I was able to achieve the results on my report card and would love to help others to do the same. I chose medicine so that I can use my skills to help those in need. I have a younger sister (grade 8) who I frequently help with school work, so I have experience in that regard.
