Something you might not know about me is that I have a BA Journalism Degree, majoring in Politics, from the University of Johannesburg. I also have an honours degree in Communication Science majoring in Media Studies from the University of South Africa. On completing my honours degree I was approached by two universities to continue my studies and do a Masters degree - both wanted me…
This wasn't supposed to be all about The Gram but it turned out that way. And you can't really talk about Instagram without mentioning influencers.

My name is Sam, though I'm also known as Tech Girl and this is my little space on the internet. My friends and I share our love for all things gaming, geek and gadgets here. I'm a South African Esports host and content creator. Links to all my various platforms are here on the blog. I'm a giant nerd, own far too many pairs of Converse and secretly wish I could be one of the X-Men!
