About me
PAST
In 2015, I graduated with a Bachelor of Design (Communication) at Otago Polytechnic in Dunedin, New Zealand.
In 2018, I relocated from New Zealand to beautiful Australia to pursue my career and passion in design and get amongst the adventurous and beachy lifestyle of the Gold Coast. I worked for Sea World Cruises amongst multiple tourism brands as Graphic Designer. This heavily developed my attention to detail, initiative and overall design skills. I then moved into a more suitable role for Ashy Bines, working in the health and fitness industry. This is where I realised where my passion lied and I grew into a more senior role and developed my social media experience.
PASSIONS
Fashion, beauty and fitness are my passions in my personal life, therefore I love working for brands in these industries. I realised that if I work within these, I feel aligned, passionate about the brand and can understand on a deeper level, their values, styles and goals. However, I am also open to exploring opportunities in other industries, as I enjoy the challenge of new experiences.
The Designer
I’m super adventurous, a creative and a high achiever. This applies to both my personal and work life. Through my outdoorsy Queenstown upbringing of camping, boating, hiking and skiing, I developed a love for risk. I crave adventure and straying from mundane life; pushing myself outside my comfort zone and constantly working to better myself. In my career, I never settle for anything less than 100% and strive to think outside the box. My absolute passion is working with brands to grow with them, create on trend but unique designs and help them to stand out from the ever-growing competition.
