Celebrate the victories Text: JUSTINE FORTUIN. Photo: GYPSEENIA LION 20 Get It Bloemfontein December 2022 getitmagazine.co.za/bloemfontein
“My New Year’s resolution for 2023 is to celebrate the victories – each one, regardless of how small it is. We tend to focus so much on our stresses and the things that go wrong that we forget to see how far we have come and how blessed we are.” tefan Lotter grew up in Kroonstad and moved to Bloemfontein immediately after he matriculated to study Economics at the University of the Free State (UFS). “During my studies I was intrigued by student leadership and invested a lot of time forming part of the leadership and transformation at UFS. This resulted in me becoming Mr UFS (RAG), which led to me getting a contract at ACE Models, a show at Kovsie FM, and starting to present and be the Master of Ceremonies at events all around Bloem and the Free State,” he says. He adds that he was in awe of his journey and the effects ACE Models had on his life, “and I wanted to be part of that. I started as a male mentor and became a Director of ACE Models Bloemfontein in the beginning of this year”. When the pandemic hit, Stefan took on a new role as a property practitioner at RealNet Bloemfontein. “I enjoyed success faster than I could’ve thought. I was quickly recognised as a rookie to be reckoned with in the property space. I recently received the Silver Status Certificate and Million Rand Club Certificate at the National RealNet Star Awards.” In the spirit of celebrating, Stefan says he has a few things worth celebrating as he has had an amazing year. “I am blessed with amazing people in my life, from my family to my friends and my ACE Models students. I received the prize for New Director of the Year at the ACE Models International Conference in July, I became the director of a company, giving the youth of Bloemfontein a voice and empowering them while having SO much fun doing so and I worked hard to reach my goals as a Real Estate Practitioner. I am excited to escalate this avenue of my life with opportunities that presented itself – this exciting venture is worth celebrating. I celebrate the fact that my hard work has finally started to bear fruits and this is evident in all aspects of my career.” Another big achievement Stefan feels proud of is the fact that he has aligned his name with so many big brands before the age of 25 “and I continue to grow my network and contacts with every collaboration. I think it is a big achievement that brands align with my values, morals, and what I stand for.” 2023 has a lot in store for him, some of which he can’t disclose as yet. “I was recently signed with an agent at Legends Actors in Johannesburg and gotten my very first role in a series that will be aired in 2023 – even though it is a small role, I am excited for the doors it may open for the future. I am definitely working on doing more presenting on TV too,” he says. He adds that ACE Models will be having its biggest year yet as their family is growing daily. “We have several events planned and are so excited about the amazing things this academy brings to Bloemfontein.” This festive season Stefan will be spending time at his family home in Bloemfontein. “During the festive season I focus on what matters to me the most. I spend as much time with my family as possible. I also use the free time the festive season brings to reflect on the year that has passed and focus and plan for the year ahead. The festive season is obviously nothing without gifts – but the older I get the more I realise that being surrounded by family and love is the ultimate gift.” getitmagazine.co.za/bloemfontein December 2022 Get It Bloemfontein 21
