About me

My passion is not only appreciation of the arts, but also the creation of art. The power of visual communication and the way we can share information and ideas will never fail to amaze me. My experience varies from digital and print, magazine design, government, corporate, not for profit, the arts, health and marketing. My skills range from art direction and design though to finished art. 



In 2003, I worked at the Arts Centre Melbourne for 5 years, which gave me invaluable experience. The Arts Centre gave me a chance to indulge myself in the arts and fuel my passions. I worked on a range of print materials, which gave me experience of paper stocks and working with printers. Managing an internal design studio taught me organisational skills and the ability to work on multiple projects at one time. 

In 2015, I was senior graphic designer for the Australian launch of the international french fashion magazine L’Officiel. My role ranged from layouts, art direction, planning for future editions, training of interns, briefing photographers, and retouching.



Since 2010 I have been working as a freelance designer. Over the years I have worked with a wide clients from the arts to not for profits.

Contact me

  • If you have never worked with a graphic designer before, it’s really quite simple. The first step is for us to have a chat. I need to find out what you are looking for and what you plan to do. I’ll probably ask you lots of questions about your project.  A design brief is an amazing thing, but if you don’t have one don’t worry, I can help you create one.

    After we chat, I then take a look at the project, and quote according to your specific needs. The quote will include cost, work outline, timelines and terms and conditions.

  • The second steps is where I create ideas, which I then present to you. This is where you get to be part of the creative process and where the final designs will end up.

  • Once a direction is decided, there are normally three rounds of changes to finalise the project. This is where we go back and forth, finesse the designs and make final changes.

  • Final artwork. This is where we finalize the project and congratulate ourselves on an amazing job done.
