I am involved with the South African National Parks (SANParks) Honorary Rangers; I serve on the National Executive Committee and responsible for Public Relations, Marketing and Communications. I am responsible for the overall brand and the secondary spokesperson for the organisation. I also have several years experience within the media industry.
I joined the South African National Parks (SANParks) Honorary Rangers in 2010 due to my love of conservation. I was hoping this step would enable me to be more involved in important work within our national parks. It has been a journey I was not expecting. In the few short years since I joined I have moved up the structures to now where I am on the National Executive Committee for Public Relations, Marketing and Communications. This means I am responsible for the overall brand of the South African National Parks (SANParks) Honorary Rangers and the secondary spokesperson for the organisation. While this has been a learning curve in some respect, in others, such as dealing with the media and drafting media content, I am an old hand. I have worked in the media industry in my own capacity for several years before joining the South African National Parks (SANParks) Honorary Rangers and this has put me in good stead for this demanding work.
