I'm a South African graphic artist living in Johannesburg interested in the arts, culture, languages, traveling, plants, nature, the ocean, music, pockets, light, photography, philosophy, animals, hiking, and a bunch of other stuff. I would like to meet new people and see the places I travel to form a local's perspective. I would like to host in the future, as soon as I get a bigger place.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an educator by trade, I teach Graphic Design, Web Design, Design Theory and Professional practice at a tertiary educational institute in Johannesburg north. I'm an practicing artist and have a weird and wonderful general knowledge. I love learning and discovering things as I then feel that I have more to share.
