Hobbies

  • People Empowerment
    I was brought up to treat all people equally irrespective of our differences. As a result i have always help those unable to stand up for themselves, i feel it is my duty to stand up for those who are unable to do so or provide them with the necessary support to do so. "To inspire or empower has a greater effect than to enforce"
  • Long distance Driving
    In the 8 years i have had my drivers license i have never been involved in a traffic accident and have covered over 700 000 km of road in all provinces of R.S.A.
  • Music
    Music has been a huge part of my upbringing, due to that fact i have assembled quite the collection. on occasion mostly at family gatherings and celebrations i would usually be requested to DJ the event or supply music to that affect.
  • Cooking
    As i spent lots of time away from home after completing schooling, i was forced to make my own food. Over the years i have refined that skill and can prepare anything from a delicious curry to a succulent roast. The most important thing about cooking is technique and combinations once that is mastered it becomes easy
  • AV setup
    I have always had a knack for figuring out audio/video connections mostly with home surround and car audio systems. i find this very enjoyable and always try to do it as professionally as possible.
