About me
Dolling out Design, Animation, Editing, Illustration, and all other manner of creative service in the interest of damn good storytelling. With four years as Designer & Art Director at a full-service creative agency my experience ranges from packaging, branding, and web design to campaign creative, video editing, and animation for a flavourful platter of clients such as Sony Mobile, Meals on Wheels, Sydney Water and Tourism Norther Territory. I now work as a freelance creative making pretty pictures for great ideas, or great ideas for pretty pictures, or most times both. I just love making things!

    Bachelor of Design (Honours) in Visual CommunicationUniversity of Technology, Sydney
     - Sydney, Australia
    Completed a four year bachelors degree with honours, studying multi-disciplinary Visual Communication with Design. The subjects I explored covered a diverse range of creative fields including film, illustration, print and pre-press, typographic design, animation, and coding. While my work centred largely on visual narratives, I was constantly looking to express stories in new ways by experimenting with new mediums and applying techniques in new ways.
