I am a PhD candidate in Epidemiology, with a background in Human Movement Science and Biokinetics - a field combining exercise physiology, physiotherapy, and preventative medicine.

My current research is part of the KaziBantu Project: Healthy Schools for Healthy Communities, where I explore the effectiveness of a workplace health intervention aimed at reducing non-communicable disease risk factors, improving psychosocial wellbeing, and promoting healthy behaviours among teachers in low-resourced schools in Gqeberha, South Africa.
