About me

I live in Cape Town, South Africa and am a proudly African Wikipedian. Since 2011 I have initiate projects to further the WikiAfrica movement across Africa, and am the co-lead for Wiki In Africa that facilitates projects across Africa galvanising and growing Wikimedia communities that adds African content to the Wikimedia and other Open platforms. I have been a member of the Simple APG committee (since May 2017) and was an Advocacy Working Group member during the Movement Strategy 2030 process from 2018 until end of 2019.
