My Story
My path here started in Economics, not code. I completed a Bachelor of Science in Economics at the University of the Free State, where coursework in statistics and records systems gave me an early appetite for structured data and the stories hiding inside it. From there, I taught myself web development from the ground up : HTML, CSS, JavaScript — because I wanted the ability to actually build the tools that data insights get delivered through, not just hand off a spreadsheet and hope for the best.
Along the way I've worked in roles that don't sound like "data analyst" on paper — coordinating communications and media for a foundation, managing sensitive learner records and exam logistics for a school — but every one of them came down to the same thing: keeping information accurate, organized, and usable under real deadlines. That operational grounding is part of what I bring to analysis work now.
