I am currently completing a Bachelor of Digital Media (Graphic Design Major) at Griffith University. I’ve had a multitude of experiences through my working life which gives me a raft of knowledge that can be used to my clients advantage. My previous careers have enabled me the time to hone my skills in customer relations, event planning and management as well as the design development of campaigns along with their implementation all with a strong understanding of how important brand identity & integrity are across all areas.
