MY ENDORSEMENTS

Word on the Street.

Jarrod was one of the most talented students I've worked with in my years teaching and training UX skills. He's got an excellent eye for the visual, combined with a strong understanding of the theory and practice of UX. I expect to be enjoying Jarrod's great work on some of the biggest, best and most used digital products in South Africa (and the world) for many years to come. I'd recommend him to any UX team.

UX Designer @ Takealot.com

Jarrod is probably by far the best Senior Designer I have ever worked with. Open minded and always willing to try new things. When we first met, I was a timid and shy designer, but over the months that we worked together, he really taught me a lot about speaking up and being able to explain my designs and thinking. Over the years, not only have we enjoyed sharing design ideas but a good friendship too!
