Hello,
it's nice to meet you.

Hello,
it's nice to meet you.

I am a designer & art director based in Melbourne, with 11 years of experience in motion & digital.

I create unique digital experiences, from animation and motion graphics through to accessibility, interactive installations, virtual reality, and visual design.

Throughout my career, I have designed and worked on a variety of print, motion, installation and interactive projects for Nike, Telstra, Sportsgirl, UNICEF, Pandora, Paramount, State of Design, SBS and Australia Post.

My work has been featured on Semi-Permanent, The Age, Channel 9, Seven Network and Australian Infront and Girls in Tech.

I am also the co-founder of SignHow, an innovative start-up that produced the first inclusive and accessible sign language dictionary for all communities around the world.

I am currently working at ANZ in Melbourne, Australia.

You can find the professional side of me on LinkedIn, the everyday me on Instagram, or simply say hello here!

Thank you and high fives.
