Lately I’ve felt a little convicted, because a lot of people assume I’m an online influencer… 🤫 but that’s not really me. I’m just an ordinary South African girl with big dreams and a deep love for people, and I’m grateful to be one of the invisible hands that helps keep the economy moving. 🫶🏼
I work in growth and enablement in merchant acquiring across Africa, and the majority of my job actually entails listening and learning, sitting with teams, banks, telcos and small businesses, understanding their world, and helping turn complex tools into simple, confident actions. 
My brain gets excited by strategies…🤭

My work includes a lot of Learning, pressure, travel, learning from different cultures, and paying attention to the human behind every tap, swipe, link, and payment, interaction because beneath each transaction is a real person building something, like you or me, a family shop, a side hustle, a future. 
We’re human-first at heart and AI-first adoption in how we grow, and I’m constantly being stretched to learn what’s changing and to help others feel ready for what’s next.

Ohh and I was voted to laugh the longest in the office, because being a beacon of light is the joy of my life…Xx🤭🤣🩵
