She holds a BComm in Economics from the University of Durban Westville, a BComm (Honours) in Economics from the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits), and an MSc in Economics from the University of London.
Axelson started his career as an economic researcher at Genesis Analytics and then worked in various positions at HM Revenue and Customs in the UK.
He joined the National Treasury in 2012 as Personal Income Taxes and Savings director and was later promoted to Economic Tax Analysis chief director where he was responsible for providing policy advice to the Minister of Finance on the tax proposals contained in the Budget Review, and for compilation of the tax section and tax expenditure section of the publications.
