  1. Where were you born?
    Mbabane - Fonteyn.
  2. Where did you grow up?
    Corporation and Fonteyn - Mbabane.
  3. Growing up, what did you want to be?
    Funny it is far off from the television industry even though that did crop up once in a while. I wanted to be an archeologist because I used to be fascinated by the Egyptian pyramids.
  4. Why are you on television?
    My mother was once a Swazi TV newsreader. Every time she spoke about it, I felt I had to do it myself.
  5. Have you ever had any mishaps on air?
    Yeah, two minutes before going on air once, I was given information I had to relay. It was bulky stuff, something about telephone numbers and names. I remembered all that and forgot a simple thing as what programme would come up next.
  6. What do you like the most about your job?
    It is an eye-opener. It gets you exposed to a lot of people and personalities. One gets to travel all over the country.
  7. What makes you feel whole?
    Seeing the people I love happy. Just a smile on their faces lights up my little and simple world.
  8. What do you dislike?
    I am a people-person and so I love people to discover me when they meet me face to face instead of having preconceived ideas about who I am.
  9. What is the highlight of your life/career?
    TV Star. This is the biggest production I have taken part in. Moreover, it is the impact I was allowed to have during this production.
  10. What is your biggest fear/phobia?
    Snakes.
  11. Which three words best describe you?
    (Full of life), adventurous, smart and compassionate.
  12. What word/phrase would best describe Swaziland to you?
    A land of colour and friendly faces.
  13. What is the one thing you would love to do in your lifetime?
    Open a production house to produce Cinema Circuit movies.
  14. What words/quote do you live by?
    "Like a crimpled, spat-on dirty E20 bill, you are worth every cent you were the day you were born, despite any bad you might have done or gone through"
