Hi, I’m Tara

I am a creative graphic designer with over seven years’ experience in the design industry. I work collaboratively with clients of all sizes – from start-up businesses through to well established companies.

Based in Eccleshall, Staffordshire, I just recently moved to the UK from South Africa. Always remember to enjoy the journey, no matter what phase of that journey you may be in!
Packing up the world you know and moving to another continent is not for sissies, but embracing and enjoying every second of that journey has made a world of difference to me.

I have worked on a variety of projects such as logo creation, digital and print design as well as invitation creation. Quite simply, I love what I do. Every one of my projects is treated with an individual approach – using thought, insight and focus on your audience to create designs that make an impact. So, if your brand or organisation needs a design with distinctive identity, or impactful communication, I can deliver this and would love to hear from you!
​
Fun fact: One of my favourite hobbies is painting and drawing. Although this is more of a hobby, I would love to paint or draw for you – so don’t be shy to ask me more about this.

AfriForum Worldwide’s World Guide is where South African businesses from around the world get together to form a community. The World Guide currently has more than 1 000 businesses and contact points. Take the chance and become part of this network. Networking is not only about businesses, it is also a valuable way of building a support base for those days when the longing for a good South African wine, socialising around a braai and the indispensable South African hospitality becomes too much.
