My expertise lies in implementation and maintaining of ISO/IEC 17025 standard, method development, method validation, commissioning of new instruments, conducting audits as per ISO/IEC 17025 and designing a Quality Management System as required by ISO/IEC 17025 standard. I hold a National Diploma in Analytical Chemistry from Tshwane University of Technology and Advanced Diploma in Management (currently studying, to be completed in December 2024) from Stadio Higher Education. I have started my career at Samncor Western Chrome mines as a Laboratory student in 2012 and worked myself through the ranks until I was promoted to Laboratory Quality Practitioner in 2015 where I was responsible for the Quality Management System of the laboratory with more focus on Training of personnel, Method validations/development, conducting audits, writting/reviewing documents, commissioning new instruments and other laboratory related projects.
