I am a 39 year old motivated, creative person possessing professional experience in the architecture & interior design, photography and graphic design fields. During my studies and my work experience I have developed into an inquisitive and creative person with a passion for functionality, visual communication, social and environmental improvement.

​

For the past fifteen years key combinations of these skills have led to a number of successfully completed projects and international publications. I believe that my unique skillset and creative approach make me a highly competitive candidate. As an eager, imaginative and pragmatic person, I can make a positive contribution to your team. 

• 12+ years Architectural Work experience

• 14+ years sporadic Architectural Photography experience

• 16+ years occasional Graphic Design roles 

• Always eager to learn and develop new skills

Growing up and spending my childhood on a farm in South Africa I learned to respect and appreciate nature. My love for our natural ecosystem enhanced while living in and exploring Namibia. I wish to contribute by assisting in developing healthy natural living and working environments by utilising my skills in a challenging new role.

​

In 2007 while studying architecture I developed an interest and passion for architecture photography which has now grown into a part time career.

​

In 2010 I graduated from Tshwane University of Technology, a leading South African Architecture Faculty with a bachelor's degree in architecture.

​

I gained in-office experience during my studies and continued employment afterwards at Schnitter and Company Architects until 2013.

​

At the end of 2014 I received an opportunity to relocate and work in Windhoek, Namibia. For four and a half years I was employed by Marley Tjitjo Architects Inc, a leading Namibian architectural firm where I gained immeasurable experience in all aspects of architecture. Alongside architecture I further developed my graphic design and photography skills when I was also appointed as the firm's Brand Ambassador and Visual Content Creator in 2017.

​

Since relocating to Belgium in November 2019 I continued to develop my architecture photography part time. I am currently employed at an architecture firm in Ghent on a 4/5 basis where I gain valuable experience and a proper basis for architecture in Belgium.

​

In the last two and a half years I have been following dutch language classes up to niveau 5. While my dutch can still improve, I have no problem communicating with colleagues or clients.

​

This portfolio of work aim to show a glimpse of me as a person and to showcase my creative skill set.

New challenges excite me and I execute assignments with care and perseverance.
