I have an Honours degree in English Literature and I graduated from RMIT with a Diploma of Graphic Design in 2001. On graduating I worked inhouse as a book designer for Pearson Australia and have been a freelance graphic designer, specialising in books, since 2002.
I am happy to take client meetings, or work remotely via email and the internet. I have worked with clients for years before actually meeting them!
I’m an all rounder with initiative, confidence and lots of ideas, and I’m keen to work with you.
My years of experience allow me to get to the heart of any design problem quickly and intuitively.
I never waste time but I always make time for the fun bits.
If I don’t know something I ask.
I enjoy a respectful debate of ideas – if everyone is heard the design
is always better.I am super fast, rarely furious and always fun.
I’m full of ideas and they are usually sparkly. (Unless the brief specifically rules out sparkle of course. I can desparkle under instruction.)
I have an editing and marketing background, so can assist with writing and proofing as the job progresses.
In 2018 I completed a Certificate III in Visual Arts. I am always happy to discuss illustration/artwork requirements and give recommendations where I don't feel that my style is the correct fit for the job.
