Cape Town Agency ‘UTR’ (Under the Radar) Business Development Director, Baphumze ‘Pumie’ Msengana, was born and raised in Cape Town. Pumie, the baby of the brood was surrounded by her “very large and very loud family” close in part through inclination and partly due to her Grandmother, matriarch to the core, who arranged for each and every cousin to be picked up after school and brought to her home daily to do their homework together.
This large and involved family also meant that Pumie, who was very active in school, had a ready made rent-a-crowd who were dragged along to watch her in plays … debates … choir … sports … and pretty much anything else she felt like doing. Msengana says, “I liked to think of myself as intense and an introvert (much more interesting) but, looking back, I was clearly quite the opposite!”
