South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
At Hollywoodbets, I lead end-to-end interior and retail design projects, delivering more than 15 full-scope projects across South Africa. I currently coordinate the interior refurbishment of the Hollywoodbets Greyville Racecourse across multiple spaces, stakeholders, contractors, and deliverables.
I translate brand requirements into functional, commercially effective retail stores, restaurants, hospitality lounges, corporate environments, stadium suites, and pop-up concepts. From concept development and space planning to construction drawings, site inspections, contractor coordination, snagging, and handover, I focus on customer flow, spatial efficiency, technical accuracy, and brand consistency.
Previously, I produced AutoCAD drawing packages and municipal submission documentation at ZN Architectural Solutions, and mentored interior design students at Durban University of Technology. I bring hands-on capability in AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, Lumion, Adobe Creative Suite, project coordination, and material specification.
