Cronje headed up the Cape division of the AFU and was one of the first members of the NPA.Cronje has a Masters in Public Administration from Harvard University, Kennedy School of Government and a BA and LLB from the University of Cape Town. She worked in the NPA until 2012 and went into private practice after that.
