I was born and raised in Namibia. My family’s roots are deeply embedded in this soil. The harshness of our beautiful country has forged our existence. Drought grips the land every so often, bringing both despair and discipline. We are constantly aware of nature’s balance as our survival depends on faithful conservation and the wise use of resources. And so, we’ve grown to cherish the parched times as much as we relish the deafening sound of thunder that promises much needed rain. I am the eldest of three daughters raised by parents with deeply- rooted principles, integrity and values. My parents have been blessed manyfold, and these blessings continue to flow over on us like a “cup runneth over”. They have raised women who want to change the world for a greater purpose, and to honour and praise God in everything we do.
