Hello! My name is Mahoney and I’m a graphic designer and project officer with 7 years of experience working in the creative industry and almost a year in community services. I’ve worked at a small creative agency as a mid-weight graphic designer, where I learnt quite a few tricks of the trade. I am currently working part-time for a non-for-profit as a Project Officer. My role requires me to provide support to community based projects, as well as assisting with general office administration duties and any design requirements. I’m highly proficient in Adobe InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator, as well as Canva. I have extensive experience typesetting and proofreading, creating and executing digital ads and eDMs, retouching images, designing layouts for creative campaigns, drawing illustrative concepts and creating both digital and print-ready final artwork. When illustrating, I love experimenting with form and creating pieces that showcase a strong message through simple but thought provoking execution. I’m always keen to learn more and push myself and my ideas further. I have promoted, organised, supervised and run successful activities and events in collaboration with coworkers and members of the community.
