Craig Sampson

I am an alumnus of WITS and qualified as an electrical engineer. The foundation laid during my time at the university enabled me to delve into the realms of hardware creation and software development.

Over the years, I've been privileged to grow professionally, securing overseas clients and competing with top-tier engineers. One of my most significant achievements includes gas detection and control products currently sold by the company, which was a testament to the skills and knowledge I acquired during my academic journey.

I've been fortunate to ascend in my roles, and I currently serve as the Managing Director for a development company based in South Africa working with 25 other talented developers, collaborating with a prestigious NYSE-traded company.

The invaluable experiences and learnings during my time at [University Name] have always been close to my heart. I am eager to give back to the institution that played such a crucial role in shaping my career. I aim to mentor and guide incoming students, ensuring they are well-equipped to make their mark in the industry. My vision is to foster new talent, enhancing South Africa's competitive edge, and making our country, province, and city a beacon of pride and excellence.
