ABOUT Great TEXTpectations
We believe in the art of well-crafted communication. In
a digital world of citizen journalism, this art is slowly
dying; so it’s up to us – society’s word nerds and
courageous communicators – to fight for meaningful
messaging. We exist because we know that words have
the power to inspire and change the world through
compelling stories. This begins with words that work.
LOOKING FOR HELP WITH
CREATIVE COMMUNICATION?
“To be creative we must first lose our
fear of being wrong.”

ABOUT THE WORD NERD
I graduated as a journalist in South Africa and went on to make my own headlines in
various publishing, corporate, franchise, agency, and hospitality environments. I began
my career in marketing, advertising and branding – a passion which I still use to help my
clients find and express their own brand voice.
I am a skillful and intuitive communicator and copywriter with 20+ years’ experience in
mastering the art of meaningful communication. I make a point of getting to know and
understand my audience so that I can engage them with relevant content.
Whether it’s written, visual or verbal, I specialise in creating integrated and creative
messaging. I use my experience as a creative director, copywriter, and employee
engagement specialist to tell compelling brand stories that invite engagement and
quality conversations.
My objective is always to empower and inspire audiences with clear communication
that prompts a positive response.
