Services offered

I’m a Graphic Designer and Print Production Specialist with more than 25 years of experience across litho, digital, wide-format, and signage design. My strength lies in combining creative storytelling with technical precision, producing designs that are bold, impactful, and always production-ready.

Highly skilled in CorelDRAW and Photoshop, with working knowledge of Illustrator and InDesign, I’ve delivered everything from vehicle and bus branding to large-format signage, packaging, and corporate print materials. I’m trusted to manage the full workflow — from concept and client liaison to supplier negotiation, quoting, and final installation — ensuring projects are delivered on time and on brand.

I’ve built a reputation for being adaptable, detail-driven, and collaborative, often invited back by previous employers to support during critical periods. Based in Johannesburg, I’m open to relocation or travel for the right opportunity.

At this stage in my career, I’m seeking a long-term role or freelance collaborations where I can bring my depth of experience, loyalty, and passion for design to make a lasting impact.

Education

I hold a Higher National Diploma in Computer Graphics & Animation (Damelin, 1998) and a Higher National Diploma in Digital Publishing & Imaging (Damelin, 1997), which provided me with expert proficiency in CorelDRAW and advanced Photoshop skills. In 2015, I further expanded my knowledge by completing a Certificate in Adobe InDesign and Illustrator at the AAA School of Advertising. These qualifications have given me a solid academic foundation, which I have continuously built upon through more than 25 years of professional design and print production experience.
