I’ve grown up surrounded by art and design and its always been a constant in my life. I graduated from the NSW College of Fine Art with a Bachelor of Fine Art and followed on with an Advanced Diploma of Graphic Design from Enmore TAFE, Sydney. After graduating, I worked at M&C Saatchi Sydney in the independent design studio named ‘Bright Red Oranges’. Here I worked for clients including Qantas, Visa, MBF and the NSW Police. I created a visual identity for new clients such as Cap-XX and was the Art Director and designer for ‘In Sky Shopping’ with Qantas. In 2004 I moved to London and worked in a design office ‘Fury’ working on billboards; ads for magazines and newspapers; CD design for Polydor, brochure designs for Levi’s and freelance design work for the agency Six_Seven Photographic. Returning to Melbourne, I have continued to do freelance design – including work for Brunswick Neighbourhood House, several book designs and identity work. I enjoy gardening, ceramics, screen printing, photography and music. In 2021 I won an award for illustration for Geelong Design Week and started a Permaculture Design Certificate to set up a sustainable garden for myself and my family.
