I have survived tight deadlines, impossible briefs, and more last-minute changes than I can count
—and still genuinely enjoy the work. I specialise in turning complex ideas into clean, engaging design, while keeping the process as stress-free (and occasionally amusing) as possible.After studying a diploma in graphic design for three years, a twenty year period of mastering Adobe Creative Suite, working in an advertising studio, harnessing my own clients, liaising with those clients and controlling the relevant admin
in the design field ensued.
I hold a three-year National Diploma in Graphic Design from Wits Technikon (1999). I began my career at a below-the-line advertising agency, where I spent seven years progressing from junior designer to Studio Manager, leading a team of six designers and developing strong people management and mentoring skills.
I then established and ran my own design studio for six years, delivering end-to-end branding and design solutions for a range of clients. This experience strengthened my ability to manage projects from concept through to final production, as well as my commercial understanding of running a design business.
Following this, I transitioned into freelance work to allow for greater flexibility, collaborating
with multiple clients across Johannesburg.
This role involved full project ownership—from initial briefing and concept development through to retouching, layout design, client liaison, proofing, and final print-ready delivery.
During this time, I found a niche within a boutique branding studio, where I managed the design and production of a monthly beauty and skincare publication for 14 years. With this project I attended the briefing of the monthly concept, managed the time lines regarding various proofing deadlines to finalise sign off for print. All placing of products and copy, the sourcing of lifestyle images and reproduction of the print ready file for the printers to collect was handled by me.
