Hello, my name is Jeanne Fourie.

I am formally a B-Tech Cum Laude graduate in Industrial Design, from the Cape Peninsula University of Technology. I am interested and involved in several creative fields, and therefore define what I do as "Interactive Design". I have a great interest in digital media and tools, and using these to convey information and communicate with clients/users/viewers. Since spending 6 months studying Interaction Design at Masters level at the Malmö University in Sweden during my 3rd year of study in 2009, I have become increasingly interested in this design field. During this exchange program, my interest in video editing and production was also born, and since then I have immersed myself in this communicative medium, gaining knowledge and experience of the field in my own time.

I have spent the past year gaining experience within the industry as a freelance designer. I have worked over a broad range of fields, sometimes combining two or more of these disciplines, to supply my clients with the results that they require. I consider myself to be an extremely dedicated and involved designer, building up a good relationship and working closely with my clients, seeing a project through from start to finish. I value my clients and they work that they offer, and always try to go the extra mile with what I do.

While I enjoy being a freelance designer, I feel that I am ready to enter a full time position, so that I can learn and grow in a structured environment within the industry. I am looking forward to what the future holds, to finding a position of employment in which I will be in my creative element, to working with like-minded creatives from which I can learn and most of all, I am looking forward to the promise of a new challenge.
