Headline

Designing is my life! There is nothing else I would love to do more and it shows. Creativity is key!

Biography

Hi!

I am a Graphic Designer who has a love for layout and corporate identities. Print and digital design has been part of my job description for over 10 years. Packaging has been my mistress for the past 2 years.

I have a unique style which is accompanied by my insane OCD. Being creative has always been important to me and it has followed me into my career... And I love it!

Previous experience, degrees, and qualifications

I have been a creative my whole life.
From winning the Art Award in my matric year, to becoming student of the year at my college... I love to succeed, especially in my field!
I have over 10 years experience in graphic design. I have worked for marketing agencies and dabbled in freelance, but below are my official qualifications:

National Qualifications
1st Year - Further Education and Training Certificate: Design Foundation
SAQA ID: 49127 | NQF Level 4 | 141 Credits

Interests and hobbies

If one could combine a Farmers Market with an Alternative Music Festival, it would be my new home!
Who doesn't love to get out in nature and explore our beautiful world? After all... It is where my inspiration comes from. My hobbies include anything that gets me away from a TV screen. I love spending time outdoors and experiencing new things... This allows me to be the best I can be in my field once I do find myself in front of a screen.

How I'd describe my personality in two sentences

A determined empath... I work hard for what I want in life, but I am not willing to compromise my integrity to get where I want to be

How I'd describe my approach to my work

Controlled Chaos!
When ideas start to flow, my artboard looks like an explosion of colours, images and concepts. It might be a bit chaotic for some to see behind the scenes, but the overall outcome is a refined and streamlined version of all the concepts stuck in my brain.

Why should you choose me for your project

I honestly just love to design.
I love seeing a final project and I love creating a story.

I just love what I do... Why not use someone who would love your work too?
