It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
I’ve spent the past 20 years saying yes to pretty much everything design can throw at you — and finding joy in making it happen.
I worked in Sydney for the past eight years, side by side with Creative Director Zach Dowd. We became a bit of a duo, his influence runs through all my work.
My career hasn’t been agency-side. Instead, I’ve worked in-house for two growing companies where the design brief was… everything.
PowerPoints for the sales team.
Brand launches and B2B events.
Photoshoots, videos, merchandise packs, signage and trade shows.
Flyers, thank-you cards, internal comms, pitch decks, you name it.
If it needed pulling together, I was there. I know how to get quotes, wrangle invoices, plan shoots, and make sure every new starter gets a jumper in their exact size and chosen colour (brand palette permitting).
I’m big on asking questions and getting feedback. Nothing much phases me, as long as I’m working with kind people who care about doing good work together.
