About

I am a design policy researcher with a background in Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning. I am currently involved in an urban lab between the University of the Witwatersrand and The Technical University of Berlin (Wits-TUB) my scholarship focuses on coproducing transport services between the taxi industry and the BRT in South Africa. To deepen my understanding of the project I am involved in an internship programme at the Ekurhuleni Municipality's Transport Department and provide assistance as a transport planner in the Integrated Rapid Public Transport Network (IRPTN) Division. In my spare time I enjoy reading, writting poetry , being involved in youth development projects and outdoor activities.
