What I'm looking for

Seeking a dynamic and creative environment where I can apply my problem-solving skills and contribute to innovative projects.

As a highly motivated and results-oriented Ideation Design graduate, I bring a strong foundation in creative problem-solving and effective communication. My academic journey at Inscape Education Group has equipped me with a Bachelor of Design and a Higher Certificate in Design Techniques, complemented by a Matric certification from Royal Schools Alberton.

My professional experience includes a 240-hour internship at Loughborough University, where I designed social media campaigns and contributed to the Named After Nelson (NaN) project. I also gained valuable experience as a Call Centre Representative at Digicall Group, handling emergency calls and managing stressful situations. Additionally, I shadowed senior roles at FCB Africa and interned at Kashan Advertising, enhancing my skills in graphic design and visual communication.

I am passionate about fostering positive team dynamics and delivering exceptional customer support. My strong communication and creative skills enable me to brainstorm effectively, solve problems, and build strong brand connections. I am eager to apply my skills in a dynamic environment that values creativity and teamwork.
