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.

Jarrod has an excellent ability to understand product requirements and to design user experiences that are intuitive and uncomplicated. I enjoyed working with Jarrod, he has excellent interpersonal capabilities and works well with others, often giving helpful advice and guidance. He suggested new innovative approaches to projects and wasn’t afraid to state his opinions convincingly and with logic while still being open and flexible to the opinions of others.

Jarrod is a forward-thinking, tenacious UX expert. A team player who is open to any idea and great to work with. Always wants what is best for the user.

Jarrod is easily one of the best UX team leads I have worked with. Great attention to detail, decisive, teachable and always seeking to constantly improve the team around him. He is outgoing and has a great personality. He is someone I would recommend for any UX role in any organization.

Jarrod is an inspiring mentor who always thinks outside the box. As a team leader, he has guided me over various projects at Takealot. He sees a lot of potential in people in places where most people won’t. I am proud to call him my mentor and my friend.

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!

Jarrod is both an encouraging mentor as well as a dedicated and skilled UX designer. I would gladly recommend him for either management or technical roles and can guarantee he will add value to any organisation he works with.

It’s rare that you come across standout talent like Jarrod. Jarrod’s creativity, attention to detail and desire to meet customer expectations, makes him the ideal graphic designer for any organisation.

Jarrod is a great team player, he thinks through things practically taking into account the scope and complexity of the project. His attention to detail and scenarios are always perfect, developing off of these has always made my job easier. Solid problem-solving skills with a clear passion for mobile apps.
