Since 1992

I’ve been working professionally as a graphic artist, designer and content producer for over three decades — across print, digital, social media and editorial content.

My career began before the desktop publishing revolution and I adopted digital tools early, as they reshaped the creative industry.

Since then, I’ve continued to evolve alongside the technology — expanding into motion graphics, video production, infographics, and long-form editorial, while maintaining a strong foundation in traditional design principles.

Who I’ve worked with

I’ve produced collateral for national brands, small businesses, and institutions across Australia and New Zealand — including the media, education, mining, health, industrial, and automotive sectors. My work has appeared in major automotive publications, and I’ve contributed feature articles to magazines in four countries.

How I work

Clients tend to come back because I’m reliable, easy to deal with, and focus on producing works that are fit for purpose. I work directly with clients, from briefing through to delivery, which keeps communication clear and production efficient.
