I’ll help you tell your story. I’m a creative,
self-motivated designer with a strong
background in creative solutions. I’ve
worked extensively in the nonprofit and
corporate sectors producing high end
business-to-business and consumer-
facing designs.
I have a get-it-done attitude while not
compromising on quality, which means
that I’ll always maximise the impact of
any marketing material. I know how
to listen to a client’s design needs and
effectivly deliver solutions that work.
