Bolo Fitness
[Brand & Web Design]
My design work for Bolo Fitness focused on redefining what personal training means in a small-town setting — making fitness feel empowering, personal, and sustainable. Built around the philosophy that “strength starts with mindset,” the project combined motivational energy with a clean, high-impact visual identity that reflected both intensity and approachability.

For 365 Digital, I redefined their B2B brand with a bold new logo, strategic assets, and a user-centric website. The design highlights their expertise as an award-winning digital marketing and ad tech leader, empowering apps, agencies, and brands to connect, convert, and achieve ambitious growth through commerce media and mobile performance marketing solutions.

Smash Burger
[Brand & Web Design]
Smash Burger isn’t just a brand — it’s a full-blown flavour experience. My mission was to bring that energy to life through bold visuals, a crave-worthy identity, and a digital experience that hits as hard as the first bite.

Wolves of Eden - Album
Music Production & Graphic Design
Wolves of Eden is a deeply personal passion project — born from a lifelong love of music and the creative process behind it. After spending 16 years managing some of South Africa’s most celebrated and infamous bands and DJs, I felt a growing pull to step behind the music myself.
What we do
Six services. One opinionated approach: design without strategy is just decoration.
Brand Strategy
We define the why behind your brand before we touch a logo. Positioning, audience definition, and the strategic narrative that informs every visual decision that follows.
Brand Identity
Identity systems that hold up across every touchpoint — from primary logo and colour palette through typography, tone of voice, and a brand guideline document your team can actually use.
Web Design & UX/UI
Wix and custom-built websites engineered for clarity and conversion. Visitors find what they need, take action, and leave having done business with you. That is the only metric that matters.
Digital Marketing
Performance-led campaigns and content systems for B2B and B2C — paid social, search, display, and organic — built around what your audience actually responds to, not what looks good in a deck.
Social Media Marketing
Strategic social systems that turn passive scrollers into engaged buyers. We do not post for the sake of posting. We post because there is a reason to.
Graphic Design
Packaging, print, social assets, sales decks, and everything in between. Senior visual execution at a standard that makes your brand look like it means business.
Digital Products
Need help fast and on a tight budget? Skip the bespoke project timeline. The Brand-in-a-Box Kit and Executive Website Audit deliver agency-grade outcomes on a solopreneur timeline.
