I'm here to turn the traditional fine jewellery industry on its head by offering new and innovative ways for customers to shop and buy quality jewellery in South Africa.Tapping into my decade-long experience in digital marketing, transformation, and customer experience management in the tech and finance industries I have launched two modern eCommerce jewellery businesses in 2020 and 2021.My personal goal is to support and re-educate South Africans on fine jewellery through complete transparency so that they make better purchasing decisions that are sustainable and not harmful to their own personal financial wellbeing. Supporting local talent is key to this - our fine jewellery is predominantly manufactured here in South Africa where we have incredible goldsmiths and gemsetters.
