Making Losers Happy

In my natural habitat

After spending 8 years experiencing life in Melbourne, Australia
I felt the call of home, and made some moves to return home to New Zealand (with absolutely no regrets!). Mostly, you will find me wandering around my local suburb of Newtown, drinking coffee, digging through the record stores bins and and supporting local live music. When I am feeling a touch more energetic I love running along the rugged southern coastline and roaming Wellingtons beautiful (albeit windy) hillsides.

I currently work as a Freelance Designer, but my main focus for the past few years as been in Retail Homewares. This role includes working with a huge Australian client designing for print, digital and web across marketing campaigns, product and packaging design, social media, large format signage. Pretty much anything design related under the sun, I have worked on it!

I have developed skills Specialising in conceptualising, developing and managing creative campaigns across international brands. I’ve become the Lead designer for a nationwide retail company. This role has honed my skills to become a quick, flexible and accurate designer with a pretty cool head in extremely fast paced work environments.

I do like to keep my work varied though, and its important to keep my work diverse though my freelance work which has lead me to work on some pretty cool jobs and meet and make a range of contacts across Australia & New Zealand.
