In 2008, I began my career in the media industry, designing for newspapers and magazines. I created advertisements to client artwork, and designed templates for regular advertisers. My department, AdCompose, started under Fairfax, then moved to Nine, and is now owned by Australian Community Media (ACM). The newspaper industry has undergone significant changes over the years, with publications and people coming and going, and I've continuously evolved. When I became a stay-at-home mother, I started freelancing for businesses of all sizes. Throughout this time, I've maintained an eager desire to grow and learn. Graphic design has always been my passion, and using my creativity to help others is what I'm known for. I'm now seeking a new opportunity where I can build life and career experiences.
