- A YOUNG DESIGNER TAKING THE WORLD BY STORM -
________________________________________________________________________________
As a young woman from South Africa, I'm building a name for myself in the UX and UI design fields. Despite having excelled in math, business, and data in the past, I took an unexpected turn towards the design field. I approach projects with a holistic mindset, fusing my analytical skills with a recently discovered enthusiasm for design. My method is characterized by a careful balancing act between creativity and logic, transforming complex data into aesthetically beautiful and functional user interfaces.
I had invested everything I had in my education my entire life, believing it would be the key to my success. In the last month of high school, I decided to pursue UX design. Even though it was a total 180 from the data analyst, scientific, or programming career I was considering, during my career I have devoted all of my energy to becoming a professional UX and UI designer. I know I'm not perfect, and there's always room for growth, but considering where I started, I know I've gone a long way.
Here is how far I have gotten; I have worked with companies based all around the world. Some of these companies are based in the US, the UK, Australia, Dubai UAE, India, South Africa, New Zealand, etc. As of right now, I am 2 months away from turning 21. I got promoted to CPO at a real estate software company after working there for 2 months. I have 2 other contracts as well; one is for a software company that specializes in banking here in ZA, and the other one is for a software company in New Zealand. I am still taking on new roles and projects as they cross my path.
Personality wise, I am a low-key geek who plays DND and Magic the Gathering Arena, and I love playing games. I also love learning new things and enjoy taking up hobbies like archery, wood work, crafting, etc. I also love traveling and experiencing new things, especially with my family.
