I worked with Kelly on a client's brand refresh, specifically modernising their CI and developing a new website, and I can't recommend her enough. From understanding our brief and meeting us on ambition and budget, to delivering beautiful designs, to managing the whole process as our single point of contact - even for the web build - Kelly exceeded all expectations, always being generous with her experitse, professional and incredibly patient when the client held up progress and missed feedback deadlines. I guarantee you won't be disappointed working with Kelly and her team.

Catherine Mcpherson

Kelly is a valuable member of the WebGap design team. Her creativity, attention to detail, and dedication to quality consistently shine through in her work. Kelly's ability to conceptualise and execute innovative designs has been instrumental in our ability to roll out user journeys, wireframes, bespoke website designs, corporate identities and other adhoc design requests. She interacts exceptionally well with our clients, ensuring their needs are understood and met effectively. Kelly is collaborative, reliable, and always eager to take on new challenges. She would be a great asset to any design project or team.

Clayton Timcke
Owner, WebGap

I can highly recommend Kelly, who worked with Payfast as an outsourced designer on several projects. Kelly consistently delivered high-quality designs that not only met but exceeded our expectations. Her creative vision, attention to detail, and commitment to understanding our brand's unique needs set her apart from previous design agencies we have used. She is an amazing person to work with and easily integrated with our team, bringing fresh and innovative design concepts that played a crucial role in enhancing our user experience as well as all round visual appearance. Kelly's work is always on time and of exceptional quality, making her a valuable asset in the fast-paced fintech space. Her professionalism and ability to adapt to our evolving design requirements was impressive. Kelly has my highest recommendation, and I look forward to working with her again on future projects.

Brendon Williamson
Managing Director, Payfast

Kelly started working with Deli Spices and immediately had a positive impact on both her department and her colleagues. Kelly has always been a hard-working, loyal and trustworthy individual. I have known Kelly professionally for several years; she is a perfectionist and always strives to do things better. She plays a vital role in motivating and sharing her knowledge with those around her. She is a kind, warm, and caring person. Kelly has the ability to fit into any environment and adapts herself to the challenges at hand.

Vernon Jensen
Regional Sales Executive, Deli Spices

Kelly was recommended to me as a consultant who you can trust to understand quickly and deliver quality work. With a vague brief, an old logo and a splash page of a website she has gone above and beyond to bring our new-look and brand together. I cannot recommend her highly enough, she feels like part of the team!

James Seggie
Owner, Twenty Six South

Kelly is a skilled and talented designer. Her designs are always on spec, on-brand, innovative, and bring a consistent creative flair. She understands the briefs we provide and over-delivers providing design work that doesn’t require many if any revisions or changes. I have been working with her on a freelance basis for the last six months, and it has been an absolute pleasure. On an interpersonal level, she is easy to work with, communicative, and someone I’d highly recommend.

Pamela Migalska
Head of Marketing, Payfast

Kelly has exceptional creative talent, with attention to detail and the ability to creatively conceptualise any brief. She possesses the magic combination that few designers can rival; she has the creative and illustrative talent to artistically and creatively represent ideas, combined with a precise approach, and an acute eye for detail. I have known Kelly, first as her lecturer and now as a peer. As a student, her talent was exceptional and her enthusiasm for the industry was obvious, and as a working design professional, she continues to stand out from the crowd... and so do her designs! I can highly recommend Kelly for any and all creative solutions required. She's an asset to any branding, design or marketing project.

Karyn Pitcher
Owner, Optimal Me

Kelly has a fantastic eye for creativity and design with great attention to detail. Working remotely poses certain challenges but this has never been an issue, every brief is addressed 100% and completed in exceptional turnaround times with minimal changes. Our designs are always innovative and continue to develop bringing an element of life to what could be seen as a boring brand. We could not be happier with the quality and level of work.

Bianca Swanepoel
Group Head of Marketing, SolarAfrica

I would hire and work with Kelly again in a heartbeat. She is dependable, independent, calm and creative - ideal for the demanding marketing environment we shared for 4 years. We had a high level of responsibility behind brand management and design for product and campaign launches. Kelly brings a mature attitude, hard work discipline and a great sense of humor to the team. She is very well-versed in design and various other programs.

Lizé Baxter
Creative Head, Deli Spices

I have worked with Kelly for over 10 years in various environments. I have always been impressed with her dedication to the role, to her attention to detail and creative flair. She is the most dependable consultant I have had the honour of working with. No matter the deadline, Kelly will work to ensure it is met and communicates along the way which gives great assurance. I have recommended Kelly to many organisations who have all benefited from her magic touch. A designer with big business thinking & marketing experience, she just gets it!
