Showcase Profiles and Portfolios 2024

I'm a self-proclaimed anxious extrovert who believes I’m one of the funniest people I know. I embrace a colourful and playful approach in each and every word I write, say, or think. From copywriting and photography to small ventures in fashion, my goal is to leave a unique mark wherever I go.

I once thought copywriting was copyright law, as an ex-law student, I’m glad it isn’t. Now, I found a creative field where I can play with the power of well-placed puns and a sprinkle of quirkiness that can brighten someone’s day — because who wants just to sell stuff when I can make people think, feel, and smile? It’s not about the bottom line; it’s about my words that light up someone’s world.

Inspired by the little moments that make life unforgettable, I bring a fresh energy and boundless curiosity to every project I take on. Whether crafting for social media, building campaigns, or shaping creative direction, I’m here to create work that’s not only memorable but leaves a lasting, meaningful impact.

My story is shaped by the quiet strength of Namibia’s vast landscapes. Growing up amid endless, serene spaces, I learned to find clarity in stillness. Like the resilient Acacia, my roots run deep, grounding me in the calm that nurtures creativity. I write with intention, crafting narratives that are both powerful and purposeful. I bring depth to every project if you seek authentic, thoughtful writing.

Who am I, pray tell? A storytelling bard by nature. I read too many books as a kid and turned into a copywriter! I specialise in distilling dusty tropes and tall tales into thigh-slapping, heart-tugging creative executions that actually convert. Consider it literature for the bottom line. But it’s more than that. For me, well-crafted adventure stories are the oxygen for the soul, animating both people and brands alike.

I know you're searching for that elusive 'u' after the 'q’.  So, call me Lae.  While I’m driven and precise like the rest, I’m setting a new standard for what a Copywriter can be. I thrive on chewing concepts for breakfast and typesetting big ideas that complement your morning brew—keeping it as fresh as my swag and as adaptable as a USB-Type-C.

I’m Leah, an Afrikaans farm girl who finds joy in life’s small moments. It’s not easy in a big, bustling world. I remind myself to think less and just “Gooi mielies” (go for it). Through all my creative work, I aim to make people feel. I’m also an empath, so no wonder I thrive in collaborative spaces. I'm here to expand my creative identity, one positive impact at a time.

Hi, I'm Michaela, copywriter and philomath - a lover of learning. Believe me, I take the art of philomathy seriously. After all, it takes dedication (and bit of crazy) to graduate with a B.Soc.Sci in Psychology and Religious Studies, only to dive headfirst into copywriting. It’s philomathy that led me into the creative world, and it’ll continue to guide me on a journey of honing my skills as a wordsmith.

Hi there, my name is Siphesihle, but you can call me Siphe. (It means gift). I cherish the sense of community that comes with sports. I love storytelling and going back to my roots to write about my culture. But I’m also in touch with new trends and have nearly 2000 followers on Instagram! I am a breath of fresh air (they say) or is that just another way of saying that I’m too loud?

Scrolling, tapping, bookmarking, and pinning—I see it all probably before you do. I have all my fingers on the pulse of pop culture and niche internet references. I’m not afraid to take creative risks and approach challenges with a sense of humour and originality. I’m devoted to crafting stories that people can relate to or make them laugh.

My brain is on 24/7, which means I always have thousands of ideas in there. I question everything. Some of my thoughts are quite wild, but I’ve learned to package them in a way that makes them work. Which shows in my writing. I am an empathetic person who wants to make things better for everyone. So it’s unsurprising if a job needs to get done, people often say, “You’d better call Zine.”
