What I'm looking for

I seek a creative role where I can lead visual storytelling and digital campaigns, work cross-functionally, and drive measurable engagement and growth.

I am a passionate media and design professional with over a decade of experience across fashion, advertising, marketing, and non-profit sectors, bringing strong creative direction, styling, and visual storytelling skills to every project.

As a former fashion editor at People Magazine South Africa, I led teams, designed storyboards and produced fashion lifestyle visuals while managing budgets and editorial content that engaged audiences and met publishing standards.

I combine creative strengths with digital marketing and media buying expertise—developing paid media campaigns, social strategies, content, and performance reports—to deliver measurable results for brands and clients.
