I believe design can make a change. Design can bring communities, companies and brands together just by a simple change. My vision as a designer is to break design blocks that could help improve our communities, environments, education and many more things.

I bring a strong combination of industry design practice and tertiary teaching experience, with a particular focus on graphic design, branding, motion design, and web design. Recently, I have been involved in developing branding materials for Cosmic Wellness as it undergoes a strategic rebrand to Mairanga Wellness, contributing creative concepts and visual design solutions that align with the organisation's evolving identity and values.

Alongside industry projects, I have extensive experience creating design briefs, assessments, and learning materials that reflect current design industry standards and support student success across a range of design-focused papers. For the past two years, I have worked as a Lecturer within a Foundation Programme, teaching Motion Design, Graphic Design, and Web Design.

One of the most rewarding aspects of this role has been witnessing students grow in confidence and capability as they progress through their studies and into creative careers. I am deeply committed to continuous improvement, both personally and professionally, and strive to foster the same mindset within my colleagues, teams, and students. Whether working in education or industry, I am passionate about design, thrive in creative environments, and am always eager to contribute, learn, and deliver meaningful outcomes through design.

My work attitude is centred around the mentality “make a change,” I am a very hard-working designer, I’m always motivated and want to get the job done. I love learning new ways to design and create. I am a very creative person and having fun with design, it is however very satisfying being able to get a job done with a high standard.

My brand values that describe my design ethics are:

Empathy- Innovation- creativity
