About me

I am a creative and with qualifications in art direction from AAA school of advertising, Graphic and Web design from Boston Media House and a part-time BCom student at the University of South Africa. I currently work as a Content Designer for Peermont Hotels, Casinos, and Resorts an award-winning hospitality and entertainment company which operates 13 properties located in South Africa, Botswana and Malawi for the last ten years and going and in the process seeing my title change from DTP operator to creative operator then senior creative operator and now content designer working with various advertising agencies (Jupiter Drawing Room, Mortimer Harvey, Publics Machine) in producing print and web content.

Previously I also worked as an Illustrator and layout artist for four years at Learnthings Africa, a UK South African based company producing digital content in support of the Northern Ireland, Welsh and Scottish curricula for four years.

I also do freelance work (Corporate Identity, Print, Illustration).

In my spare time, you can find me spending quality time with my beautiful wife and children. And in some cases immediate and extended family as well.

The best explanation of what I do:

Creative that can be understood by the viewer in 3-6 seconds.

Best quote of what I do I have heard thus far:

"Content precedes design. Design in the absence of content is not design, it's decoration." - Jeffrey Zeldman
