About me

I designed and built my first Shopify eCommerce website in 2015 (for a South African business selling mountain bikes and sports equipment). That website went on to rank at the top of Google due to the SEO work I did, leading to more high-value organic sales for the business.
I was part of the team that managed the digital marketing and eCommerce website for one of South Africa's biggest car rental companies. This included managing a major website redesign and move to a new platform.
I have a Bachelor's degree in Media & Communications and in my early career worked as a journalist and editor in media and publishing, in South Africa and the UK, before transitioning to digital marketing and website development.
I am a passionate User Experience (UX) Designer. UX design is about understanding the various ways your target audiences use your website and how you want them to use your website.
