Profile
Hi, I am a multidisciplinary designer based in Wellington, New Zealand.
I have a passion for creating functional, colourful and trendy solutions through graphic designs, illustrations and marketing strategies.
My personal projects strive for cultural, social, environmental and aesthetically-pleasing impact.
Experience
Expanding upon my deep-rooted passion for the arts, I made a conscious decision to relocate to Wellington, a city renowned for its artistic vibrancy. It was in this creative hub that I pursued my Bachelor of Design Innovation, which I successfully completed in 2020. Throughout my studies, I specialised in Communication Design while also gaining valuable insights into the realm of Marketing. Immersed in the eclectic and dynamic lifestyle that Wellington offers, my creativity flourished, igniting a profound love for this city and its diverse influences.
During the final stages of my academic journey, I embarked on a freelance design venture, collaborating with notable clients such as Garage Project. This rewarding experience eventually led me to secure a contracting opportunity with Ocean Design. In 2021, I took a significant leap forward by transitioning into my first full-time role as a designer at Ocean Design, where I continue to contribute my expertise and passion to this day.
Through my professional journey, I have fostered a profound enthusiasm for integrating arts, design, and culture into my work. This unwavering commitment allows me to create compelling designs that not only captivate audiences but also embrace the essence of diverse cultures and artistic expressions
