About
Creative graphic designer and illustrator with over 15 years of commercial experience across print, web, social and animation. Known for a playful, bold, typography-led style, turning complex ideas into clear, effective visual communications.
Most recently, I led design for a behavioural change agency focused on social impact, collaborating with strategists and researchers to deliver mission-driven campaigns. I’ve also supported premium brand social content for major clients, and worked directly with clients on a wide range of collateral, websites, animations and video.
