I'm Tebogo Frank Morake, a multi-skilled professional based in Johannesburg with formal qualifications in Cost and Management Accounting (UJ Diploma, 2004) and a Diploma in Digital Animation (The Animation School, 2017). I have over a decade of experience in Credit Control and General Accounting, with roles at SAICA, NHLS, G-Fox & Co, Tracker Vehicle Recovery, and Gauteng Car Sounds & Security. In 2015-2017 I pursued digital animation and have since built 6 years of post-graduate animation experience as a freelancer. These days I split my time between animation freelancing and providing fleet service advisory support for a law firm in Randburg. I'm open to accounting and animation roles, including temporary or permanent positions, and I'm willing to relocate to Cape Town or Durban for the right opportunity.
