I am a post-graduate student at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg South Africa . I am doing an Honours Degree in Palaeontology. I did my under-graduate studies with the University of Zimbabwe where I graduated with a Bsc Degree with a double major in Geology and Biology. I worked in Zimbabwe as a Curator of Palaeontology at the Natural History Museum in Bulawayo then I joined the Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research at the University of the Witwatersrand as a Praparator. My job involves going to the Field to “hunt” for fossils then prepare these fossils in the Laboratory(separate bone from the rock).

I want to further my studies up to PhD level in the field of Palaeontology. My research interests include Dinosaurs, Palaeo-anthropology as well as Karoo Stratigraphy. My other interests include Game viewing as well as travelling.
