“I am a Msc student at the Evolutionary Studies Institute, at Wits University.”

I am a passionate, dedicated and hard-working individual who is motivated and ever-curious about the world of science. I completed my matric at small Christian school called Heron Bridge College in 2017/8. I went on to pursue my first degree in Biological Sciences in 2019 and completed my honours in Palaeontology in 2022 at the University of the Witwatersrand. I am currently completing my masters at the same institution.
