My news stories covered all beats and I wrote various features on community upliftment projects in the areas I was responsible for. It was at Public Eye News where I was introduced to and involved in news editing. I introduced community news mainly from Thaba Nchu and Bloemfontein, doing both the writing and photography.

Jan 2011 - Jul 2011
I was responsible for covering news stories for Thokoza, Spruitview and Alberton. Sourcing, gathering and compiling news stories for every beat. During my employ, my editor and I conceptualised and introduced a feature called "The Principal's Corner" which I was responsible for. We gave principals various schools an opportunity to share their vision for the institutions they headed as well as a bit about their own background. Although my stint was short, I managed to introduce the newspaper to the various townships and to do heartwarming features of people doing great things in their small corners. Show less
