Traffic Controller
Yolandi might be our traffic controller but with a deadline in sight, she stops at nothing. When she isn’t dealing with our design team or streamlining campaigns, she pursues her passion of baking cakes or anything sweet. As a meticulous multi-tasker and our go-to-girl, she is the hub of the Colourworks office.
