What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that values creativity and innovation, with opportunities for professional growth.

With over 28 years of experience in graphic multimedia and digital design, I have honed my skills in creating compelling visual content across various sectors, including banking, finance, and medical. My expertise lies in developing responsive web applications and delivering tailored design solutions that align with client goals. I have worked with prestigious brands such as Nedbank, FNB, and SA Tourism, contributing to high-profile projects that showcase my ability to blend creativity with functionality.

My career has been marked by a commitment to excellence in design, from crafting low- and high-fidelity wireframes to executing complete branding strategies. I possess a deep understanding of layout design, color separation, and reproduction requirements, which allows me to create visually appealing and effective designs. I am passionate about user experience and strive to create designs that not only meet but exceed client expectations.
