What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead concept-to-delivery branding and visual identity work, collaborating with Creative, Marketing, and Digital teams to deliver integrated campaigns across digital, social, retail, and print—while helping brands grow through strong design systems.

I’m a results-driven Graphic Designer with 5+ years of experience leading the design and execution of high-impact brand campaigns across digital, social, retail, and print channels. I build modern, elevated, and culturally connected visual identities that translate campaign concepts into commercially effective creative.

In my current role at Hive Group, I deliver concept-to-delivery design and manage end-to-end creative production. I delivered 50+ print and digital design assets for McDonald’s South Africa and owned creative direction from sign-off through final delivery, driving a 70% increase in brand visibility by managing print production single-handedly under tight deadlines.

Earlier, at Grey Advertising, I gained agency-paced momentum through a 1-year internship, consistently meeting deadlines across diverse client briefs. I produced high-conversion website banners and digital assets, strengthening my ability to balance multiple projects and stakeholder expectations.

As a freelance Graphic Designer, I increased brand visibility by 50% through a company logo refresh within a 2-week turnaround. I also refreshed core brand collateral (business cards, email signatures, and stationery) and created document templates and standardized client proposals to improve consistency and cut production time.
