After completing school, Zozi, as she is known by, graduated from the Cape Peninsula University of Technology with an ND: Public Relations management in 2018, and began working for a Global advertising agency in Cape Town, South Africa.
As the third woman from South Africa to win the Miss Universe title, Zozi made history by being the first black South African winner to do so in her natural short hair when crowned in December 2019. Zozi is a proponent of natural beauty and “embracing your authentic self”, and her decision to wear her hair naturally became an example to young women around the globe, “to take up space” and not be afraid to be themselves. This message was delivered during the national competition and spurred global recognition from the likes of Oprah to Michelle Obama.

During the 2020 year, Zozi helped to create the social media talk platform, #UniverseUnited, and partnered with UN Women SA, the African Union, and various other global based organizations to amplify her message.
