More About Me

 

I LIKE WORKING

With People

In short, nothing is better than getting to know another person, understanding their goals and finding out what makes their project special and unique, then coming up with designs that express them in the best possible way to leave a lasting impression. Knowing I can deliver high-end, aesthetically pleasing graphic design and web design along with the user experience and functionality to ensure the designs work and serve their purpose efficiently is what I’m most passionate about.

The best part of the process is when it all starts to come together and we analyse the results, and we have real evidence of the effect it has made on the business to raise it to the next level. I absolutely thrive on creating brands and websites that make a profound impact on my client’s success!

Whether it’s developing a visually compelling brand or creating content that generates engagement, design has the ultimate power to make a positive change in the business. I enjoy thinking strategically to capture the key messages to create an experience that accurately reflects who my clients are.

HOW I BECAME A

Graphic Designer

As long as I can remember I have always loved drawing and painting and being creative. As I grew older the more I became fascinated in what could be achieved in a digital sense along with a design eye, and so I decided to pursue a career in graphic design. I wanted to take my skills to the next level and learn how to design logos, websites and everything in between.

I was eager to know of the endless opportunities to create new and exciting visuals for people. However, becoming a graphic designer was no easy task. My tertiary qualification spanned 4 years of full-time study and countless hours of practising, learning, researching and honing my skills. I had to learn how to use all the relevant software and I have to ensure I keep up with the latest design trends. Now, I'm able to work with clients to help them bring their ideas to life visually from creating a brand through to building websites and creating print based media.
