My Story – short version

I’ve gone through my memory bank, & I clearly remember that I have always wanted to be involved with art. All kids drew while they were growing up, but I revelled in being able to draw & create anything with just a pencil & some paper. I’ve been blessed with my creativity as I’ve achieved some awards throughout my schooling in art, so wanting to follow through & study further in the art field was a no-brainer.

I have pretty much done & been involved in all forms of design, thinking that I need to be mastering every area! Not the case, I can tell you!
Yes, I have learnt a tremendous amount, but I realised that I need to focus on what I enjoy the most, have a passion for & be able to supply the best solution to help people’s ideas become a reality.

If you are part of a big company, or small business or want to create your own personal “Brand” this is the space I love being in, because it’s where we can Create, Innovate, Collaborate & most of all Be Cool!

I dig that slogan as it encompasses everything I’m about. I can do the work for you, but I need your input to make it happen to achieve your goals.
