Designer. Developer. Problem Solver.

Hi, I’m Erika 👋🏼 I’ve been designing and building websites for over 20 years, and I still genuinely love what I do.

Here’s what makes me a bit different: I’m both a designer and a frontend engineer. That means when I design something beautiful, I can actually build it—no lost-in-translation moments, no “that’s not technically possible” surprises. What you see in the designs is what you get in the final product.

Experience that counts

I’ve worked across industries from fintech to e-commerce, building everything from cryptocurrency wallets to online stores. I’ve created numerous e-commerce sites that not only look professional but actually drive sales. I’ve been part of startup teams, run my own design business, and collaborated with agencies on client work. That variety means I can adapt to different project needs and hit the ground running.

Based in South Africa

I work with clients locally and internationally, keeping communication clear and timelines realistic no matter where you’re based.

What I do

UX/UI Design

Beautiful, functional user experiences start with research, testing, and iteration. I design interfaces that solve real problems and meet user needs and business goals. Whether reimagining existing products or starting fresh, every project gets strategic thinking and meticulous attention to detail.

Design Systems

Consistency and speed come from well-crafted design systems. From design tokens to component libraries, I create scalable systems that work for designers and developers alike. Strong documentation ensures seamless adoption and long-term maintenance.

Frontend Development

Clean, maintainable code brings designs to life. Specializing in modern JavaScript frameworks, I build responsive, accessible interfaces that perform seamlessly across devices. My deep understanding of design principles means pixel-perfect implementation without sacrificing code quality.

Web Development

Fast, scalable websites and applications require careful planning from architecture to deployment. Handling both client and server-side development, I create robust digital experiences that prioritize performance, security, and maintainability—ensuring projects stand the test of time.
