I am a multi-award-winning journalist and the author of two books. I co-founded the Food For Mzansi Group, which boasts 20 global media awards. Other career highlights include a stint as editor-in-chief and general manager of East Africa Magazines based in Nairobi. I hold an MBA degree from Stellenbosch University and am currently splitting my time between the US and South Africa. As a skilled entrepreneur with experience in maintaining stakeholder relations in culturally diverse and international environments, I have built a career on excelling in challenging situations. I am passionate about creating business solutions for social problems and leading company turnarounds. I act as business and marketing strategist for niche marketing agency YehBaby Digital. I am a trained and experienced journalist with a strong background in digital and traditional marketing. Some of my most valuable skills are in situational analysis and understanding business systems in order to find the pressure points where business or managerial interventions can make the most difference.
