      After completing a 4-year curriculum centred around responsible entrepreneurship, I have officially been inducted as an AGOF Fellow. This opportunity has exposed me to real-world business scenarios throughout my studies and widened my network to include a diverse group of young South African business leaders. Selected as one of 50 students for the Allan Gray Orbis Foundation entrepreneurship bursary in 2019. This included full university funding and the opportunity to complete the entrepreneurship curriculum. Attended various workshops with some of the most influential figures in South Africa (e.g. Thuli Madonsela, Anthony Farr etc.) that expanded my perspective of what is possible.
