Front-End Development

I started my journey in the world of web development back in grade 10 of highschool, 2021. I began messing around with WordPress websites, using simple design principles and free templates to build websites. This was a very free-based form of learning, and I did it at no pace.

After matriculating in 2023, I began growing my skills and experiences as much as possible to become an asset. I built more sights, learned some fundamentals on SEO and good web principles, and began searching for jobs and learning experiences.

In November 2024, an amazing marketing agency known as SearchKings Africa decided to take the gamble on me. A fresh out of school tech-entrepreneur who had no degree backing or anything to show for himself, other than some random websites and tech-savvy skills. I was employed as a Junior Technical Operations Specialist.

I began growing within the company and learning different skills. The company recognised my creative talent in the world of web development and design, and as of September 2025, I was promoted to a Front-End Developer at SearchKings Africa.

As of yet, I have just been improving my web-development skills as much as I can. I enrolled in The Odin Project, to further my expertise and knowledge with all the tasks that come with front end development. Primarily, my skills are based on the Elementor Pro and BeBuilder web building environments, as well as JavaScript, CSS and HTML skills.

All of my Front-End Development based projects have been made with SearchKings Africa.

Creative Technology

So you’re probably thinking… What is Creative Technology? well, it’s a multifaceted field that combines artistic vision and technical skill to innovate new solutions, products, and experiences. 

Without knowing it, I’ve had a passion for creative technology since highschool. I’m a very technical person but I also have a deep love for creativity, so finding this field was like reaching the final pringle in the jar, sweet success.

My skills in creative technology range from GFX, VFX, Web and photography, all of which I have a deep passion for. If you’d like to go in-depth in terms of skills, please pop a visit to my Skills Panel.

Vocal Artistry

As mentioned above, welcome to the Vocal Artistry section.

Vocal Artistry is a combination of art styles that use your voice. This field encapsulates my skills.

My vocal artistry career started with virtual motorsports commentating. As motorsports is another one of my passions and hobbies, it was a great place for me to start out. I began working on small leagues as a secondary commentator, alongside the legendary Steven Kernick, who taught me most of what I know today in motorsports commentating.

From there, I moved onto some bigger projects. I went international in virtual commentating, and become a remote commentator for Apex Racing TV. This is roughly when I got involved in the Voice-Over industry. I started doing VO adverts for pharmaceutical companies, as well as other projects on platforms like Voices and Starnow. As of current, I’ve been doing more projects, in particular, international projects and bigger stage events.
