"I want to share my story with you: It started on 22 May, 1991 in Nelspruit. I was born with a heart defect which led to me having heart surgery at the age of 4 months. Complications led to me becoming paralysed.
"At the age of 5, I had my 4th and last heart operation. In ICU the personnel told my parents to go home because my heart rate was slowing down. The next day when they returned I was sitting in bed singing to everyone.
"That is where my life journey started. From that day I couldn't stop singing. I have grabbed every opportunity that came my way. I love to live life to the fullest! I want to inspire and motivate everyone to reach for their dreams no matter how big or small. You are strong and powerful."
