Content Strategist & Copywriter

"I worked with the FFA team to build their new website from scratch, as a copywriter and content strategist — complemented by my background in brand strategy and UX design. Every step of the process was a team effort, and I really appreciated the intensely collaborative approach — the whole was definitely more than the sum of its parts. I believe in the FFA mission, and felt privileged to be a part of bringing the FFA brand and vision to life."

Photographer

"Beginning February 2020, I was commissioned by the Wallpaper magazine to photograph the Founders Factory in Braamfontein, Johannesburg. My objective was to capture the interior and surroundings of the space, also portraits of designer Peter Mabeo and CEO, Roo Rogers. The space represents a true extension of modern Johannesburg and surroundings. I appreciated the collaborative energy whilst visiting and shooting in the Founders Factory, which made my experience and process seamless on the day."
