About Dumi-rocks
Grew up in a village and maybe it might irk your imagination that I went to a rather ill-resourced school. Despite all that I saw my ambition and drive journeying me to one of the most prestigious and highly respected University in the country, the University of Stellenbosch. Not only is it a leading academic centre of learning, but it offered itself to be my knowledge partner.
With that, let me introduce myself. I am a young, dynamic and energetic student. I am in my final year of study and I would like to have a career in Auditing. I am actively involved in my academic career, first as a student, secondly as a student leader and perhaps lastly as a community development leader.
Community, youth and leadership development are close to my heart. I am inspired by the idea of being an agent for social change. Leadership and community development is so central to me that I completed a six months credit bearing course in Leadership and Community Interaction at the University of Stellenbosch.
Oh, well at the beginning of 2012, myself and other four former school mates convened and identified a need for education upliftment project in our community. To address that social-ill we started a foundation that will deal with educational disparities, leadership and entrepreneurial development, career guidance and public speaking.
I most value education, Social responsible leadership and a pursuit for Justice, peace and reconciliation.
My type of South Africa is one that is economically liberated and crime free.
In most cases, if not in all, I autograph my work with enthusiasm, excellence and impeccable integrity.
