Hello, I am a UI/UX Digital Graphic Product designer.

“It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation” – Herman Melville

Professional

I have a professional business relationship with all my clients and a pleasant manner dealing with them. I work together with my co-workers as part of the greater team, being confident and believing in myself. I am able to motivate, lead and follow with great passion for my work.

Experienced

I am a dedicated product designer with a degree in Graphic Design, where I specialised in website design. Continuously honing my skills, I actively pursue professional development in UI/UX design and product management. After studying and gaining broader knowledge, I found my passion for product design. With over six years of experience, I currently work as a product designer.

Consistent

I work quickly and accurately. My deadlines are always met, I’m great at handing off briefs above expectations so I can meet my clients’ needs in an efficient manner while meeting tight deadlines – it’s what makes me stand out from other designers just as much or more than my skills do.

What People Say About Me

Denise Viljoen Co-Owner Alwyn

Christen is a very talented graphic designer who has given us a fresh input what works and what is related to our business, goals and current trends. She understood what we wanted on a new level. She is really creative and a gifted professional who assisted us with a beautiful logo and helped created our own identity. She responded almost immediately and her communication was clear and always helpful.

Christen is a very efficient designer who delivered work exactly according to my needs. It was easy to communicate my idea to her and she immediately understood it and started working on my logo. Once we decided on a concept she gave me many options to choose from which was an added bonus. I highly recommend this hard working, fast delivering designer to anyone.

I’ve worked with Christen both on a professional project and a personal project. In both cases, she has proved to be professional, talented, and thorough. She listens closely and provides a balanced amount of creative input when necessary. Her process made me take a closer look at the direction in which I was headed and she definitely captured the spirit of my product. Above all she works extremely fast and professional with delivering the perfect end result.

During my affiliation with Christen, I have experienced an individual who showed determination, worked hard and carried herself in a polite, respectable manner. Also, Christen is exceptionally gifted in regards to finding creative design solutions with limited resources available to her while always maintaining a positive attitude and sticking to strict deadlines. The quality of her work is of the highest standards, and she manages to exceed expectations every time. She is a candidate I would recommend and use for future projects.
