Meet The Makers

〰️ MEET THE MAKER: Busisiwe Nkabinde 〰️⁠

Busi was born in Mooi ('Beautiful') River on 9th of July 1973.⁠
She attended the local Zulu Speaking Primary School and then moved on to the Eninyezana High School in Mooi River Town.⁠
Busi unfortunately never completed High School due to violence in the area. So her highest education level is Year 11.⁠
She joined the team in July 2014. It was her very first job and she has been with us ever since.⁠
Busi is a quiet & gentle soul who commands respect in her mature and dedicated attitude to her work and colleagues.⁠
She has worked her way up and is now in charge of all the artisans in our Studio! ⁠
Busi lives at home with her partner of 21 years, her son, daughter & aged mother, who she also supports.⁠
