About

My name is Judith Coetzee and I am 21 years old. I am South African and I lived in Cape Town, South African all my life. In 2019, I moved with my family to California and that's where I currently live. I study online at Southern new Hamshire University. My two biggest passions in the world in fashion and cooking. I am very passionate about working in the luxury fashion industry when I graduate. I am extremely goal-driven and hard working. I have always been a perfectionist and nothing will stop me from being a success in my career one day.

Outside the classroom

I love to cook and bake for my family and friends. I am always experimenting in the kitchen with new recipes. I also love to read fashion magazines like Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. I love to be active and I go on regular walks with my dogs and I go to the gym almost every day.

Volunteering

  • I volunteered at a children's homeless shelter in Cape Town, South Africa. I cooked for the children, I did homework with them and helped them to study, and I played and entertained them.
