I started off my studies and career in Fashion Design. Soon thereafter I spend 14 months in Germany living with a family as an Au-pair and learning the language. I then took a decade-long detour within the Travel Industry. I quickly became the manager of the Travel Agency I worked for and as the travel bug bit again, I moved to London for 2 years and worked as a Business Travel Consultant. Back home, I joined Lufthansa German Airlines as an account manager until my daughter was born in 2010. After her birth, I started my own Graphic Design Studio & E-commerce website (www.matchsetlove.com) so that I could further expand my creative side whilst also being able to be flexible with my time as a new mom. In hindsight, this came in handy because I could take my business with me when we moved from South Africa to Germany in 2014 and then from Germany to the Netherlands in 2016.

I have learned so much over this time and all of these experiences helps me to help others.
