With over twenty years experience in graphic design, publishing and illustration and a deep interest in the visual arts, I aim to bring passion and enthusiasm to every project. I pride myself on the ability to develop and adapt to a wide variety of client needs, and I consider my versatility and communication skills among my strongest assets. While my commercial work is predominantly digital, I often find that the freedom of traditional media informs and guides fresh developments in my practice. Based in Auckland, I have collaborated with clients across Japan and New Zealand, delivering branding, editorial design, infographics and 3D modelling for publishers, research organisations and academic institutions.
