About

With over 40 years’ graphic design industry experience, both here in Australia and internationally, I am able to offer a full complement of professional services for a wide range of communication media including: advertising, annual reports, books, brochures, conference, seminar and festival collateral, direct marketing, exhibitions, logos and branding, newsletters, packaging, publicity material, social media/digital assets, stationery and websites.

From strategic planning, conceptualising and innovative design, through conscientious project management, copywriting and artwork, to print and production, and successful delivery of your completed product – on time – you can rely on the utmost quality and integrity every step of the way.

​External services such as event management, market research, media, PR, printing and web development can also be arranged, if necessary, and managed internally, leaving you to concentrate on your own business.

​I am also a ‘causist’ and am heavily involved with many community initiatives and not-for-profit organisations, small and large, on a paid and/or pro-bono basis. I am very honoured to be be a Festival Fleurieu Patron and a Peace Ambassador of The Graham F Smith Peace Foundation Inc. and feel proud that my efforts really make a difference in broadening reach and helping to build awareness for these (and other) groups.
