What I'm looking for

I seek creative roles where I can produce illustrations and visual content, grow a brand, collaborate on design projects, and contribute to community-focused events while developing my design and communication skills.

I hold a BA degree in Ancient Culture Studies and English, as well as an Honours in English Literature from the University of Pretoria. As part of my education, I learnt valuable copyediting and proofreading skills, as well as developed my writing and communication skills.

Currently, I work as a freelance fine artist and illustrator. I create commission-based and independent fine art and graphic illustrations. I also manage my social media accounts to grow my personal art brand online. I also hold short-course certifications in Graphic Design and Web Design from the University of Cape Town.

My background also includes event organisation and campus leadership as a House Committee member responsible for internal culture, socials, chapel, and IT labs. I also have experience invigilating Matric exams.
