      Founder and Managing Director

      As the Founder and Managing Director of Mbasane Women in Information Technology, I've driven innovation and growth within the ICT industry for over two decades. My entrepreneurial journey began with the co-founding of Yahluma Communications Solutions, a trailblazing BPO&O story that continues to be a case study at Wits Business School.Since establishing Mbasane in 2013, I've successfully navigated diverse opportunities, from strategic partnerships with leading telecommunications companies to impactful skills development programs. My passion for bridging the digital divide has led me to spearhead initiatives that empower unemployed ICT graduates and contribute to South Africa's economic growth.Beyond my professional pursuits, I'm committed to making a positive social impact. As a co-founder of the Celebrate Life Foundation, I volunteer my time and resources to raise funds for cancer awareness and screening programs in the Eastern Cape. Show less
