He had most of his experience from SIFE, BMF and CENCOMM where he had the responsibility to provide entrepreneurship, leadership and basic supervisory skills respectively.

He has a passion, strong ethical values and a sense of community development in South Africa and has participated in different forums that seek to alleviate poverty and unemployment. His inspiration lies in helping others to succeed. As the demands of the global economy place increased pressure on societies to become self sufficient, the importance of providing opportunities to those who lack the necessary education and financial resources has become increasingly apparent. The emotional and material support generated by projects such as those initiated by Isaac is integral to promoting efficient markets and thus helping to alleviate poverty.
