What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters creativity and allows for professional growth in the arts.

I am currently pursuing my Master's degree in Fine and Studio Arts, building on a solid foundation of academic achievements, including multiple Cum Laude distinctions in my previous diplomas. My journey through the arts has equipped me with exceptional organizational and administrative skills, allowing me to thrive in high-pressure environments. I am dedicated to delivering outstanding results and am always ready to tackle diverse challenges.

Throughout my academic career, I have honed my artistic abilities, particularly in acrylic and oil painting, while also developing a strong proficiency in digital tools such as Photoshop and Microsoft Office. My experience as a student mentor and tutor at Tshwane University of Technology has further enhanced my communication skills and my ability to manage and lead effectively. I am passionate about writing and storytelling, which complements my artistic endeavors and allows me to conceptualize and execute creative projects with depth.
