I LOVE design! Anything design! I find myself secretly studying and judging brands and their logos, what they mean and why they used these specific elements throughout their brand. My Pinterest is filled with art, illustration, poster design and pretty much anything creative so that I can go back and use it for inspiration later cause, what can I say, I’m a person who loves to create! Sometimes I struggle to even sit down with one hobby and focus on it because I’m constantly wanting to work on the next thing. I’ll be painting on one day and then the next day I’ll be crocheting, or drawing, or reading. Some may call it ADHD, but I call it “The Life of A Creative”! I’ve been drawing and painting ever since I can remember, and I’m so grateful that I can create things on the daily, as my job! 7 year old me would be very proud :)

In 2020, I completed my studies and did some freelance work on the side while looking for a full-time job. In Feb of 2021, I found a job as a Graphic Designer for a small social media agency and that's where I've been working ever since. This role has allowed me to learn and grow as a designer, as well as having the privilege to work with many different clients. 

I studied Graphic Design full-time at Vega School of Design in Durban from 2018 - 2020 and this is where I received my Bachelor's Degree.
