AAA #AList Showcase
Paris one month, Johannesburg the next, then London, Rome and Amsterdam. Zesintu Mgobhozi has built a career out of chasing culture across the cities that shape it. She is the founder and editorial director of CIKO CIRILLO, a luxury cultural platform working as an official partner initiative under the United Nations Fashion and Lifestyle Network, where she has profiled the likes of Trevor Stuurman, Patrick McDowell and former Vogue Russia editor Liza Ostanina.
Before that, she spent time as a strategist at Net#work BBDO, researching and building strategy for brands including Google, YouTube, L’Oréal and Ford Mustang. It’s the kind of client list most graduates only dream of touching so early, and it’s exactly the point of studying at aaa. Zesintu graduated Cum Laude in Marketing Communication, picking up six industry excellence awards along the way, including the Yellowwood Trophy for Top Brand Management Student.
Her path shows what happens when a qualification is built on real agency exposure rather than theory alone: you leave ready to work with the brands you once studied.
