About me
A multidisciplinary creative problem solver focusing on the intersection of humanist experience with technology. Enhancing our relationships through interactive experiences for brand narratives, from a background that stems across art direction, design and user experience. Interest include — the relationship of our natural behaviours with digital interactions in the physical space — and how we transform moments to become mediums of digital realities.

  • Pichulik Africa

I worked closely with the owner to tailor the user journey, with an emphasis on eCommerce conversions.
