With over two decades of experience in the creative industry, I am a seasoned Graphic Designer, Illustrator, Animator, and Technical Artist who thrives on transforming ideas into visually compelling stories. My journey has been marked by a commitment to excellence, continuous learning, and a passion for blending traditional and digital media to create impactful designs.

My career started with foundational roles in graphic design, where I honed my skills in creating complete corporate identities for buildings and malls. This early experience with renowned clients like Maponya Mall and Gautrain instilled in me a keen eye for detail and an appreciation for cohesive branding. Over time, I transitioned into more dynamic roles, taking on projects that required a blend of technical precision and creative innovation.

For the past five years, I have immersed myself in the online casino gaming industry, working with Wonderlabz, Aristocrat Interactive, and Roxor. This role has been transformative, allowing me to help develop and lead the creation of technical artwork pipelines, concept artwork, and final presentations. I have collaborated closely with producers, creative directors, and development teams to deliver high-quality online games that captivate audiences worldwide. This experience has sharpened my problem-solving skills, enhanced my ability to work under pressure, and reinforced my dedication to delivering excellence.

My proficiency in a wide range of technical tools, including Adobe CC, Photoshop, After Effects, Spine Pro, and 3D Studio Max, empowers me to handle diverse design challenges efficiently. I am adept at both traditional hand-drawn techniques and modern digital methods, enabling me to create versatile and innovative designs. My commitment to continuous learning is evident in my recent training in JSON, Visual Studio Code, and 3ds Max Mastery.

One of my proudest achievements was my contribution to the development of international-quality online casino games. Collaborating in the creation and setup of technical artwork pipelines, I played a pivotal role in ensuring seamless integration of art assets, which significantly enhanced the visual appeal and performance of these games. This accomplishment not only showcased my technical expertise but also my ability to lead and collaborate with cross-functional teams to achieve common goals.

I am excited about the opportunity to bring my extensive experience, innovative mindset, and passion for design to a team that values creativity and excellence. I am driven by the challenge of pushing creative boundaries and am eager to contribute to the mission of delivering exceptional design solutions. My ability to blend technical skill with creative vision makes me a strong candidate for the Open position, and I am enthusiastic about the possibility of being part of such a dynamic and forward-thinking team.
