About me

I am passionate about how creativity can breathe new life into brands and make their communication strategies stand out from the pack. With a background in graphic design, I have expanded into brand essence work and idea generation, helping clients find their unique vision and values to engage new audiences. What makes me different, is that I can translate this brand essence into internal and external communications across media - print, digital and video work. And having worked for a range of international clients under pressure, I'm used to the demands of quick creative problem solving!
