Profile Information

Who are you?
CURRENTLY: Marketing Manager at Relate Technologies

Born in the USA, I lived in Colombia, Germany and France before moving to SA in 1998.

Have been a passionate marketer of technology to businesses these past 15 years or so, having worked at Software AG (Germany), Dimension Data (JHB), MWEB, STT (now Kaplan IT Learning) and Global Vision (Adora). Did marketing consulting and brand development for Fundamental, Travelogic, MCI (now Verizon), Smartsource and Omnibridge (now Mix Telematics).

Am in love with South Africa. Really....obsessed. I live here because after all of my travels, I can honestly say this is the best place to live in the world. And I feel privileged to make this place my home.

Fluent in English, Spanish (mother tongue) and German....used to be fluent in French (very rusty now). Enjoy running, cycling, hiking and indulging in Cape Town's restaurants, bars and music scene.

"Hi Cyrillia I'm American, but my parents are Colombian. So, I grew up speaking Spanish at home. I've been in SA since 1998, so I've made this place my home :-) What's an IC?"

Hi Julian

Great to meet you!

I am Capetonian, South African, with Spanish heritage. Sadly, I don't speak Spanish, but it is certainly on my bucket list!

Are you Spanish/Portuguese? What is your ICT connection? Cheers,
Cyrillia
