I graduated from my dream academy in my dream city✨ 

8 of the most incredible months of my life. My graduation feels like a miracle upon planet earth because I didn’t choose to just be a full time student I chose to build and live a full life in the U.S. without holding back. My days started at 6am and finished at 12am. In bed by 1am and back up again at 6am. I am so grateful to the New York Film Academy for the financial aid, accommodating my insane schedule, the patience, the kindness and the phenomenal mentors. I learnt to fully just surrender to the moment as an actress here at NYFA. To listen and respond. I have found a whole new confidence within myself as a woman as well as myself as an actor. I now know what I bring to the table and no one can take that away from me. 

To my spring and summer semester humans. What a beautiful ride it’s been. Thank you for supporting me. Guiding me. Listening with me and surrendering to this journey with me. Creating with you has been marvelous. And how blessed am I to have found forever friends in you all. 

An American education. That is the gift I have given myself here. As a young South African woman, this always felt so unattainable to me, so financially out of reach. But I did it. I made it happen. This has by far been the hardest chapter of my life. But also the most rewarding. And as I look back on the last 8 months I am so proud of the path I have walked. 

A big special shoutout needs to go to my parents. My mum and dad, my Chantel and Mark and of course my Uncle Derek and Pauline. For the daily calls of motivation. The listening. The extra push when I found myself unable to get up some mornings. The wiping of tears even from across the world. My greatest strength is given from the force of love you send my way. It engulfs the world. I am entirely who I am because of who you are. I love you dearly. All 6 of you! 

May I forever stand as a testimony that anything is possible. Your dreams are attainable. Even if they don’t come true when you think they should. Don’t give up. Keep working hard. And when you think you’re working hard work harder. It all comes together. That’s the magic of life ❤️
