What I'm looking for

I seek collaborative creative roles where I can design story-driven visuals, contribute to animated projects, and grow within innovative teams while using Adobe tools.

I am a freelance graphic designer, storyboard and concept artist based in Cape Town, South Africa, with experience across concept art, illustration, motion graphics and music production. I design backgrounds, props and storyboards for animated projects and short films, and produce posters, newsletters, brochures and apparel visuals using the Adobe Suite.

I hold Adobe Certified Professional credentials (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects) and completed Concept Art studies at the Academy of Digital Arts (3rd Year Graduate, 2023–2025). I collaborate with studios and external clients, delivering clear visual storytelling, strong time management, and reliable teamwork to help realize original and creative brand projects.
