About me
My name is Mandlakazi Siravanjin Mthana. A Xhosa woman born and bred in Uitenhage, situated in the Eastern Cape of South Africa. Straight after I graduated from high school I moved to Cape Town to pursue my studies in Fashion Design at the Elizabeth Galloway Academy of Fashion Design and that's where my creative path truly started...
3years into my first job as a graphic designer I earned a certificate in Graphic Design from the University of Cape Town.
I am a multi-talented and bubbly individual currently working within the print and advertising industry as a DTP Graphic Design. I previously worked in the clothing manufacturing industry as Fashion Graphic Designer.
Because I am a bubbly person, customer service has always been my strong point hence I am currently working towards a Professional Diploma in User Experience Design at the UX Design Institute. In all the disciplines I have been exposed to, I've come to understand that to serve my customer well, I have to understand my customer better. This is why I am investing in growing my soft skills.
