I am a full-time freelance South African based artistic Senior Graphic Designer who has recently worked at Beetle Inc, a strategic advertising and marketing agency. Previously I worked for the 13th Floor as a Mid/Senior Graphic Designer in Durban. I have 12 yrs design experience and 8 yrs as a primary school Arts & Culture educator. I am self taught and have impeccable self discipline. I have worked mainly in branding, social media, website UI, presentations, newsletters, retail leaflets, large format signage and illustration for print and digital for various brands. In 2013 I won 3rd place as graphic designer of the year at the Caxton National Awards and thrive on new challenges. My happiest place is with my new family and playing the piano. My hobby is painting with real brushes, although ctrl-z would come in handy every now and then! I have also started selling hand painted watercolor and gouache patterns on P.O.D websites.
