Hi, I'm Michelle
I'm, half Mauritian, half South African and both countries have a very special place in my heart. I grew up in the Vibrant City of Johannesburg, playing sports, dancing, horse-riding and chilling with friends. I then moved to the cosmopolitan city of Cape Town where I studied a BA in Graphic Design and Photography at the Stellenbosch Academy of Design while discovering the amazing city and enjoying the occasional wine farm. I worked for one and a half years at Kastners and Partners, the Red Bull agency in Cape Town. I followed Yoann, my husband, to Mauritius 5 years ago and haven't looked back! I worked at Maurice Publicite Ogilvy and then moved to Circus Advertising where I worked for 4 years before starting the Mink in July 2015.
