I’m curious at heart and have always been fascinated with what makes people tick. Naturally, that steered me to pursue a career in branding – it’s the perfect blend between analytical thinking and creative expression. I obtained my B.A. Degree in Visual Communication in 2013 at Open Window in South Africa. I worked as an in-house graphic designer, as a freelancer, and then as Art Director at a through-the-line agency. Driven by my appetite for freedom in the projects I take on and the people I work with, I took a leap of faith and quite a job I loved. I founded Achro Brand Studio in 2018 – a year spent living in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The entrepreneurial spirit of the expat community inspired me early in my journey to explore different areas of the industry. I’ve since narrowed down my offering to brand strategy and identity design. ‍ I live in Cape Town with my husband Francois, and our three dogs. I’m listening with an open mind, offering my skills and enthusiasm to help you achieve your goals.
