Projects
- Business Leaders' Health & Safety Forum - Annual Report 2015In my last role I was responsible for the design and layout of the BLF Annual Report. I completed the majority of the work by myself, whilst working closely with the client to ensure a high standard of design and checking. I enjoyed this project due to the simple and clean design, which is effective in clearly relaying the information.
- Dulux Trade NZ - Specifier Home Page WebtilesDuring my time in New Zealand, I worked on a number of projects for Dulux. Working on the webtiles project broadened my understanding of the web and helped me to build a strong relationship with the client. I love web design, and I am excited about increasing my involvement in the future.
- Corrections WorksOne of my main responsibilities in my last role was the design and management of two publications for the Department of Corrections. The examples of the newsletter shown on this page were produced on a quarterly basis. This particular newsletter was aimed at shareholders and management in the Department of Corrections. This project heightened my attention to detail greatly, due to the work comprising a wide range of components.
