About Claire Strydom

My career began with studies at Stellenbosch University. I graduated with a degree in Drama and a Post Graduate certificate in education. I love people and found that both drama and teaching allowed me to study people, behaviour, body language and communication. All these skills are necessary in property sales. So my studies have definitely assisted my people skills and helped me to understand people better. I also completed my NQF4, NQF5 as well as PDE4 and PDE5. These qualifications have given me a proper foundation for working in the property sector. I love business and enjoy negotiation, so I feel sales is exactly the right place for me. I am also married and a mother of three young boys, so life for me is very importantly about having a balance, so that I can be the best partner and mother, and enjoy work and family life equally.
