I am passionate about developing SMMEs, entrepreneurship, business development, leadership, and women's empowerment.

I am an accomplished and dynamic SMME Consultant, Program/Project Manager and Senior Geologist with more than 12 years of professional working experience. Well known for my ability to meet, achieve and exceed company and project objectives.

As a venture capitalist, transaction advisor, and investment executive, I've successfully led growth initiatives in small to medium-sized organisations, from inception to exits. I evaluate and validate personal growth, business, and investment opportunities, guiding their effective execution. My expertise spans various aspects of business growth, including start-ups, marketing, sales, operations, team building, and financial management, offering valuable support to aspiring entrepreneurs.

I bring expertise in Finance, Strategy, Compliance & Risk, and Sales from the Automotive and Financial Services sectors. However, my true passion lies in supporting SMEs and entrepreneurs, aiming to mitigate the inequality gap and high failure rates in South Africa. My primary focus centres on providing essential services such as accounting, tax compliance, payroll, digital marketing, and bespoke business advisory, all tailored specifically for SMEs.
