About

I’m a retail-focused content creator and visual editor who enjoys turning fast-moving ideas into clear, engaging stories. With hands-on experience in Canva, CapCut, and PicsArt, I plan social content, craft captions and rewrites, and edit short-form videos that match a consistent brand voice and help build community trust.

I also bring strong customer-facing experience from busy retail environments, where I handled daily cash reconciliation, supported POS transactions, managed stock tasks, and helped customers with product knowledge and clear communication. I’m currently studying Psychology (UNISA) and previously built customer-service and advisory strength through roles at Burnt Studios and Mall of Africa Poetry, combining people skills with organized execution and creative thinking.
