About

I am a New Zealand and Australian citizen, a hands-on creative thinker who enjoys developing, directing and collaborating with other related disciplines.

I have extensive experience in designing and producing all types of corporate publishing including annual reports, IPO documentation and other corporate action documents. This experience allows me to be very efficient with my time and knowledgable about product effectivness.

I have led highly awarded creative teams while managing creative businesses in both private and public company settings.

While many designers leave behind the tools of the trade as they gain seniority, I keep pace with advances in technology and stay current with my computer skills.

My career blends design practice with business strategy, enabling sustainable, scalable results across asset management, investment banking, health and mining sectors across the UK, Asia and Australia.
