I am Mathilda Chauke and I am 29 years old. I was born and bred at Riverplaats Village under the Makhado Municipality. I am the last born with 3 siblings.

I attended Riverplaats Primary school, and then in 2004 I attended Lemana High School. In 2009 I enrolled for Bachelor of Arts in Media Studies at the University of Limpopo-Turfloop Campus, I graduated in 2013.

I grew up wishing to be in the media industry, radio to be exact. My wish was granted in 2014, when I was given an opportunity by Makhado FM; a community radio station based in Louis Trichardt in the Limpopo Province. I started off as a Xitsonga News Anchor; from the i was given another task of being a Sports Show presenter. As time went by I hosted a talk show knows as The Bridge and I also hosted graveyard timeslot. I was also given a chance to do live reporting and outside broadcasting.
