Lungelo Shezi

Lungelo is a young, small town girl with big city dreams and a passion for all things creative and media. Those who know her would use one word to describe her, ‘expressive’ which certainly proves itself in her opinionated tweets, posts and personal writings. Outside of work she loves being with people she loves and eating good food(who doesn’t) and exploring new places especially within nature. Spontaneity is one of her strongest points and she takes every day and thought as it comes within its stride.
