I was born in  Pretoria in 1972 graduated from TUT(Tswane University of Technology) and obtained a diploma in Graphic Design in 1995.

After graduating from Design school I founded a Graphic Design studio in which I worked on Corporate Identities, book illustrations for national publishers and various other artistic endeavors. At the age of thirty my creative instinct lead me to follow and fulfill my long life dream of getting up in the morning and losing myself in a blank canvas!
