I am an Art Director and designer with over 15 years industry experience, working across digital, publishing, advertising, corporate and lifestyle, in a range of areas from advertising to editorial design and digital products.
I've redesigned magazines, worked on brand collateral, and created apps for some of Australia's best known brands - from Qantas, Coles, Australian Women's Weekly, Sydney Tourism, YHA Australia and more. My work is a process of researching & planning, designing the UX & UI, prototyping, testing and validation - working alongside data analysts, product managers and engineers.
I've won international awards for my work and also been part of award-winning teams and publishers and was the first in the world to launch an app in iTunes using Adobe's Experience Manager software.
My design solutions are carefully considered with your brand in mind, and - working directly with an experienced graphic designer means you get creative ideas and sensible thinking, right from the start.
My approach is simple: to produce effective and captivating design solutions for my clients, underpinned by my hands-on experience, solid thinking, close attention to detail, innovative ideas and well thought out concepts, on time, and on budget.
