// I am a Sydney based graphic designer, with a strong interest in art direction, and research based design.

// My multidisciplinary practise is unified by a strong conceptual focus, and consistent attention to detail. However, my process usually begins with playful, messy, sketchbook pages, like the ones pictured below.

// During my time at the Liverpool School of Art & Design, I utilised my interest in research by supporting staff at LJMU’s Teaching and Learning Academy, in investigating the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on staff and student wellbeing. I also collaborated with other students on an end of year publication for the graphic design & Illustration course. Upon graduating in 2022, I received a first-class degree with honours, as well as the Directors Award for Excellence, given to the top graduating student from each pathway at the School of Art.
// Since then, I have worked on a range of projects covering a wide breadth of disciplines including branding, web design, concept drawing, and presentation design.
// Going forward, I would love to further develop my design skills in an environment where I can network with other creatives, whilst continuing to strive for the best possible outcomes for each project.
