About me

Kia ora, I'm a Kiwi designer who resides in Dunedin, New Zealand where I enjoy creating my own artwork and photography.

My career began in Auckland, New Zealand where I worked for top design agencies on print and TVC graphics then moved to London designing for high end brands for over 12 years. In my last position I went from print design to 2D motion adverts for in-store advertising at Harrods on their 4K screen network. I would often edit videos or was given flat artwork or photos which I had to find a way to animate or turn into cinemagraphs.

Having vast experience in studios and agencies in New Zealand and London, I fit well into most roles very quickly and feel comfortable in the latest design packages. My knowledge of Adobe CS suite is excellent; Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, Premiere and InDesign are my strongest however I have lately delved into some web design with Muse.

With a natural eye for design I enjoy a challenge, I'm easy going yet professional and a great self starter. I love creating artwork but have also found enjoyment in nature photography and motion graphics. Please check out my website to see my latest work. I am looking for remote freelance work so please contact me if you have any projects you think would fit my skills.
