Work

Products, systems, and honest demos.

A selection of internal products, web systems, studio work, and concept demos. Demo or speculative work is labelled clearly and not presented as approved client work.

Internal product
GradWise
An AI research assistant for postgraduate students who need a sharper way to manage reading, writing, supervisor feedback, and research execution.

Problem

Postgraduate research can become chaotic even when the student understands the topic. The workflow breaks before the intellect does.

Solution

A disciplined assistant that turns academic pressure into structured reading, planning, drafting, and revision tasks.

Demo build
Muzica
A music platform project for sharpening full-stack product judgment, interface flow, media handling, and deployment decisions.

Problem

Music products look simple from the outside, but the experience depends on dozens of small technical and interface decisions.

Solution

A custom build exploring authentication, storage, playback surfaces, deployment, and the details that make a media app feel coherent.

Studio brand
Rivaldo Mockson Studio
A web design, UI/UX, and digital systems studio for South African service businesses that need sharper online infrastructure.

Problem

Many service businesses do not need a bloated agency process. They need a clear offer, a credible site, and systems that help people take action.

Solution

Premium websites, landing pages, UX structure, and practical digital systems built around trust, clarity, and conversion.

Forensic Research Portfolio
A personal publishing system for research notes, forensic science writing, project logs, and public learning.

Problem

The work sits between science, writing, and digital building, so a standard portfolio would flatten the actual story.

Solution

A brand site that gives the MSc research serious space while still showing the products, studio work, and lessons behind the build.

Concept demo
Selected Service Business Demo
A concept website direction for service businesses that need a stronger first impression and cleaner inquiry path.

Problem

Some businesses need to see what a tighter online presence could feel like before committing to a full project.

Solution

A labelled demo build that shows structure, copy hierarchy, and conversion flow without presenting the work as approved client work.
