I am a skilled and practiced performer, singer-songwriter and qualified raw food teacher.
I gained national and international experience as a live freestyle vocalist, recording artist, Pop Idols Top 7 contestant, singer and dancer- performing at festivals and events as a solo artist and as a front woman of a pop rock band.
Traveling abroad to perform at the International Radio Festival in Switzerland, including Italy, Turkey, Spain (Ibiza), Malawi, Seychelles and London, I am a seasoned adventurer in the quest for stages of musical expression. With nearly 35 countries that I have explored, my bucket list grows in dreams of singing opportunities.
Trained and extremely knowledgeable in matters of food and nutrition, from becoming a certified Raw Food Teacher, to heading the Slow Food Convivium in the rural farmlands of Limpopo, South Africa.
My diverse experience with Superfoods and plant based, vegan friendly menus pairs well with extensive entertainment exposure, bringing ideals of longevity to the people.
Heading the Artist Management and Bookings division at one of Africa's leading record labels Soul Candi, my travel management, social media, marketing, endorsement and team leader skill set saw to my quick success in managing sales projections and protecting the artists images and brand growth.
Massive local artists such as Mi Casa and DJ Euphonik were part of the portfolio that I managed and grew.
As a host for an online radio show called Boombox on Euro Trash Music, my friendly gift of the gab enabled me to explore musical genres and connect the listener to the journey of sound, networking with acclaimed producers worldwide and widening my creative content skills.
As a solo artist with several charting number 1 tracks on local radio, my previous band The Pixie Bennett band were acknowledged as "Best New Artist" for our début video "Edge Of The Line".
A past Universal Music signed artist, my solo album "A Thousand Paper Birds" is currently available on the iTunes platform, and reflects a style of song writing that is upbeat and is reminiscent of sunset beach bar groove times.
After becoming a mother to two magnificent lights, I explored a new world of Raw Foods and Superfoods, training as a qualified teacher and I expanded into restaurant consulting and blog and recipe creation.
Studying the works of leading wellness and health influencers, my flair for science and diet supported my creative surge into the world of health supplements. Researching topics on cancer and chronic disease, vaccinations, mitochondrial support, intermittent fasting, neuroplasticity, neuro protection, epigenetics, consciousness, quantum theory and autism.
Predominantly, my research has focused on the medicinal and mystical benefits of the iconic fruit of Myrobalan and the historical relevance and usage in the great yogic lineages of Shiva and Milarepa, the greatest Buddhist poet and singer.
Together with a foundation course as an energy practitioner in Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping), my use of language is constantly being paired with healing affirmations, modalities and mechanisms.
With a vision of teaching students practical poetry about Ayurvedic and ancient medicines or articles on "Steps to Rawareness- Transitioning to a healthy lifestyle", I am passionate and skilled in many areas relating to writing and inspiring my audience.
Warm, magnetic and charismatic, my bubbly nature brings bounce to festivals and events where I am accomplished in matters of media, direct sales, spiritual improvement and the joy of art.
After making it to the top 7 position in the popular reality TV show Pop Idols Season 5 in 2009, I was no stranger to the South African press, online media, radio and TV shows.
My career enabled me the grace of working with many leading artists both locally and abroad, networking with a diversely flourishing group of individuals who hold power in their displays of creative abilities and who influence the greater picture of equanimity and upliftment.
With strong musical roots in African soils of township audiences, my leaves and fruits blossom into the lives of a large demographic where my compassion and loving kindness motivates my daily vision for truthful, real and honest connection.
An intermediate yoga practitioner, my history in contemporary dance, street and Irish tap, modern and jazz, ballroom, ballet and freestyle allow me the vehicle to bring words to life with enthusiasm and quality.
Visual artist and video mapping specialist Craig Shackleton of the duo 'Afterlife' and father of my children Nova and Tré, adds an extra special quality skill set to any dynamic live event where message and visual expression are relevant and required.
Movement through medicine and art. Wisdom of words and the evolution of expression. Simple and advanced messages for a practical purpose. Songs of searching and success. Love in our intent. Courage in our collective.
I am truly greatful to be a part of this community, and I look forward to sharing many perspectives together!
