Born in Tsolo, I spent my early childhood in the best of ways and the simplicity still brings back such fond memories. I moved to East London and did my schooling until my matric year. It was during this time when my interest in winemaking was piqued. Even though I had no clue what the industry entailed, I was drawn to this career and envisioned myself growing within it.
I completed my BSc Agriculture: Viticulture and Oenology degree at Stellenbosch University followed by a master's degree in Wine Biotechnology, specialising in wine sensory and consumer research.
I started my first winemaking job at the end of 2018 and am now truly honoured and thrilled to have joined the Boschendal team in 2022, making one of the country's most loved and accoladed ranges of Cap Classique!
In my day-to-day winemaking procedures, I constantly aim for quality by working with precision and passion - the ideals that are a necessity when making Cap Classique. As an individual, I always strive for simplicity and elegance in my craft. I am also a firm believer of personal development and have a passion for the enrichment of our senses holistically.
