What's
your most embarrassing moment?
There are these people on this planet whom we call “accident prone” and I’m unfortunately one of them. Always a sliding door to knock into, a pavement to fall off of or ….anyway you get my drift? Thinking back the one that stands out was when I was on a dance floor, feeling like a dance queen, doing the most stylish of moves and then “missed a step,” I almost fell but managed to gain my composure and “created” a new dance move which I thought was GREAT! (Obviously to hide the fact that I had “missed this step”) And just as I thought I fooled everyone, I looked up and noticed that everyone, including my friends, were having a good laugh. Needless to say I was turning a shade of red at the time and couldn’t help but laugh at myself. |
What's the best piece
of advice you've received?
Always remain humble and never forget where you came from. |
What's your secret
indulgence?
A can of condensed milk , mmm, yummy yummy. |
Who has influenced you
most?
My parents and my sisters. |
What's a typical Sunday morning
like for you?
It depends on the weather. Either having a good sleep in the morning to catch up on my sleep I miss due to my early morning hours I work then watching DVD’s later while staying in my jammies….or if the sun is out, put on my bikini and head for the beach! |
Bio
I’ve been working as a radio presenter for about 6 to 7 years and as a TV presenter and researcher for 3 to 4 years. Looking back I never imagined that one day I would be in the media industry. When I matriculated I thought I would become a tycoon business woman owning the world or perhaps a doctor saving lives? After matric I studied B.Comm Human Resources in an effort to pursue the tycoon business woman dream I had. But when I look at myself today I believe that the media industry followed me where ever I was. Ever since my schooldays I was told that I have the “gift for the gab” and I found myself working odd jobs that involved me being close to music or literally talking on a microphone and I had and still have an intense love for music. After quite a while I finally plucked up the courage to start working in radio (my first radio presenter job being at a retail radio station). I then used this to gain experience and sent through my demo after which I landed a job in the commercial radio industry. In my second year of radio I landed a job as a TV presenter and researcher on “Take5” on SABC1.
I also worked on “Susters” for the Channel MK89 as a TV presenter and researcher in Cape Town. So here I am and loving every minute of it! I currently do the shift at 94.5 Kfm on Monday’s 12am to 6am and Tuesdays to Fridays 2am till 6am. I’m living proof that anything is possible if you put your mind to it. You are able to be the greatest achiever you can be, so never let anyone tell you any different! In a way I am touching people’s lives and I am my own business, so maybe I did achieve all my dreams…. |
