After School:
Studied engineering at UCT. Then back to Pretoria to work off a bursary with De Beers. Then abroad for some travels in Africa, Europe and S America before heading down to Cape Town to work at De Beers Marine. Spent most of 2001 on some more travels – this time on a round the world ticket. In 2002 I did an MBA at the UCT graduate school. Thereafter I was a partner in a mortgage origination company. I now have two manufacturing businesses of my own supplying the building industry.
