I love design that matters, design that has impact.

I'm a brand designer, and I've worked at four agencies across three countries, with a stretch of travelling in between that taught me as much about people as any brief. I'm an empathetic designer, and I'm happiest designing things that look great and actually get used by people.

My time at Love & Money in Melbourne is where I fell in love with systematic thinking. Working on HOKA showed me how a good system lets a brand stretch into new places and still feel on brand, and that's the work I enjoy most.

I love new technology, and I spend a lot of my time building my own tools, so the people using a brand can make new work quickly and keep it consistent.

Now I'm looking for a team where I can design brand worlds and build the systems that let them grow.
