He hails from Westville and studied media at the University of KwaZulu-Natal.
He fell for print reporting and envisioned becoming a political writer.
Siya has, however, fallen in love with lifestyle and entertainment reporting so much that politics feels like a bore now.
The lad believes everyone has a unique and interesting experience they lived in the past. He is passionate about unravelling this past and extracting nuggets from it that will amaze and inspire the reader.
Despite being in a highly outgoing profession, Siya prefers being indoors in his free time. Social media makes him tick, and it’s where most of his free time goes; that’s if he’s not reading anything from Sydney Sheldon and John Grisham or if he’s not listening to AfroBeats and Amapiano.
