Imagine presenting with impact, loving Excel pivot tables, delivering training that inspires, and mastering Microsoft 365, Word, PowerPoint, and AI with ease. As a Microsoft Certified Trainer, Microsoft-approved ISC Train the Trainer provider, TEDx coach, and PechaKucha Cape Town organiser, I help professionals and aspiring trainers grow their skills, confidence, and career opportunities.

In 2024, I achieved my Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM) designation, trained over 10,000 professionals at Massmart with a 96% satisfaction score, and was named among The Most Inspiring Education Experts in Africa by The Education View. I also received recognition from the Professional Speakers Association Virtual Chapter (SA) and hosted multiple sold-out PechaKucha storytelling events that connected communities through ideas and inspiration.

One of my most transformative experiences was taking a gap year at 50 to travel the world with my daughter. That journey reinforced my belief in lifelong learning, resilience, and finding joy in others’ success — a philosophy at the heart of Mudita Concepts.
