About

I am a creative and detail-driven Senior Graphic Designer with extensive experience in corporate document and publication design. After running a successful freelance design studio in South Africa, I established my practice in Auckland, collaborating with international and New Zealand-based clients across corporate, construction, and education sectors. I specialize in InDesign layout refinement, typography, and information hierarchy to transform text- and table-heavy content into visually compelling, easy-to-navigate designs.

I’m known for clear communication, reliability, and a collaborative approach that ensures exceptional outcomes under tight deadlines. I maintain brand integrity across all materials while delivering clarity and engagement, and I enjoy partnering with clients and marketing consultants through live review sessions and feedback rounds to ensure objectives are met.
