My notable achievements include: an internship with the United Nations Information Centre in Harare, working as a copywriter for a renowned Harare advertising agency and currently as a communication consultant.
 
From 2011, I have served as a regular columnist for The Witness newspaper in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, concurrently contributing as a health writer for Heath Matters, a provincial government health publication in KwaZulu-Natal. 
 
In addition, I penned for a Durban-based business magazine. I am also a regular writer for the Kalahari Review in Botswana and UK publications.
 
Since relocating to Harare, I have functioned as a communication consultant for local organisations in media monitoring and mentoring, corporate reputation management and brand intelligence plus research and content writing. 
 
As an out of box concept developer, I function well within a team and can easily adapt to new settings and challenges. 

My life thrust is to offer lasting communications solutions to the world and demystify stereotypes and stigmas through effective media tools through my blog: www.******.com. 

Yours faithfully,
