Wendy Mkhwanazi holds a Bachelor of Science degree majored in Microbiology and Biochemistry and is currently pursuing postgraduate studies in the Health Sciences.

She is the current chemistry tutor at BTI and has always believed that in South Africa the root of majority of problems is the lack of education. She joined the BTI program because it will give her an opportunity to engage with youth from disadvantaged and rural backgrounds with the objective of enabling them to gain education, and build scientific background.
