The long

My early years were shaped in a small fishing town on the Western Cape of South Africa. During my teenage years, my family and I moved to New Zealand, and I've been calling the US home for the past decade. With a foundation in the fashion industry, I've had the privilege of working alongside major brands such as Givenchy, Dior, and Gaultier. Additionally, I honed my artistic skills as an apprentice under a realist painter in New York while navigating the fashion world.

​

Before venturing into freelancing, I served as the creative director and co-founder of a corporate catering company in NYC. My academic background includes degrees in Marketing and Philosophy, with a particular emphasis on ethics. Integrating my diverse experiences, I approach design problems from a unique perspective.

​

I've spearheaded omnichannel marketing initiatives, contributing to the growth and enhanced recognition of the brands I've collaborated with. I've also played a key role in various branding initiatives, developing comprehensive brand guidelines for each client. I aim to bring a fresh approach to design problem-solving, leveraging my multi-faceted background for innovative solutions.
