Born in Katlehong in 1972, he matriculated from Buhlebuzile Senior Secondary school in 1992. After school he attended the Tswane University of Technology (at the time called Technikon Pretoria), graduating in 1996.

He got the trademark scar on his forehead as a child after using his parents' bed as a trampoline and falling off to cut his head on the corner of a window.
