STUDYING ABROAD
He transferred from the University of Stellenbosch in South Africa to the University of California Irvine [UCI] in the United States of America in 2018 following an overseas tour with the South African water polo team. He completed an undergraduate degree in business economics in 2020 before pursuing a master's degree in finance in 2020/21 while representing the university's water polo team. "I have always had a passion for mathematics, finance and economics and I felt that majoring in economics would allow me to develop and showcase my knowledge. After transferring to UCI, I was determined to make the most of my opportunity and planned to finish early so that I could pursue a master's in finance. It was challenging to take a full course load but I was determined, planned according and managed my time effectively." After graduating hopes to pursue a career in investment banking.
