About Jamaine

Phone verified

I am a passionate, dedicated and resourceful media practitioner with a special interest in person-centred stories from the continent I call home. I have extensive experience in print and broadcast, having reported professionally for radio, television, newspaper and magazine platforms on a number of different beats. I consider myself a strong team player with excellent written and verbal communication skills, and I am able to adapt my communication style to reflect the needs of the platform and audience that I am producing for. I also have extensive editing, copy editing and sub-editing experience. I have been fortunate to work at the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) for more than five years, fulfilling the mandate of the country's public broadcaster to inform, educate and entertain its audience of nearly 30 million people. The experience has taught me a great deal, both in practical news and language skills, but it has also shaped my views and beliefs as I strive towards visionary, courageous reporting with the highest of journalistic ideals. I have proven to be self-motivated and have a high level of problem-solving skills. I work well under pressure and am able to manage myself and others in a number of physically and emotionally demanding situations, working within a tight deadline without sacrificing accuracy or integrity. I am looking for a new and exciting experience that will challenge me as a media practitioner on both a personal and professional level.
