I hold a Bachelor of Commerce Honours degree in Financial Management from Rhodes University. I am very analytical and passionate about finance. I am a hardworking, mature young lady who is task orientated and works well under pressure. I am always eager to learn new things and I take criticism positively as a learning milestone. I adapt quickly, settle down promptly and I work well with others. I have good knowledge of possessing adequate computer skills. I have strong numerical and administrative skills, the ability to multi task and a sense of urgency.

I am currently Fund (Employee Benefits) Administrator for Samancor Funds. My current role has helped me to develop strong administrative skills, time management and prioritization skills and trained me to work well under pressure as I have deadlines and SLA’s to meet. Working in an insurance company has encouraged me to account for my actions, be transparent in everything that I do, and to be discreet about clients’ portfolios. In addition to my administration experience, I have a year experience in Finance, where I worked at PPS Group Finance as a Graduate Intern, while in this role I am exposed to both finance and Investment administration. I am now looking a new challenge, and growth more in relation to my qualification.
