In 2008, upon obtaining my Higher Diploma in Visual Arts from the University of Namibia, I committed myself to the development of art and cultural activities in Namibia.
A cultural exchange program in Berlin, Germany, in 2009, further fueled my passion for art and culture after witnessing the profound value placed on it in the Western world.
Upon my return to Namibia, I joined the Desert Research Foundation’s Livelihood Project for San people, aiming to promote San People’s Art and cultural activities in the Okongo community.
Subsequently, I served as a Curator officer at Eenhana Shrine National Heritage Site from 2009 to 2014 under the National Heritage Council of Namibia.
A pivotal moment occurred when I received a call from the office of the Permanent Secretary, the former Minister of Youth and Sport, Art and Culture, Kazenambo Kazenambo.
