I am a hybrid graphic designer and web developer uniting design and code.
South AfricaI am a hybrid graphic designer and web developer with 7+ years' experience and a background in Information Design and Computer Science. I lead design and marketing efforts, combining brand strategy, UI/UX, and hands-on front-end development to create cohesive experiences.
My work has driven measurable business results — getting products into major retailers, a rebrand that produced 19.9% real sales growth, and growing seasonal turnover from ZAR 0 to ZAR 515,000 — while building tools like calcfeed.com and maintaining ISO‑style visual asset management.
