I started my career working at the local newspaper in the production department, during this time I successfully completed my apprenticeship in Graphic Design/Pre Press. Working to tight deadlines for both daily and weekly newspapers for over 13years allowed me to work fast paced, whilst still maintaining great accuracy. Upon being made redundant after the business closed I moved to a local print factory, Scribal Group, working on a variety of print products, stationary, signage etc. Upon leaving Scribal I started working at Paragon Design Group, working mostly on the Telstra brand, including point of sale, pre-paid ticketing, user guides, packaging and lots more. While at Paragon I started learning Adobe After Effects, working on a couple of digital projects for the nbn network. Paragon was sold to WPP, eventually becoming Hogarth Australia. Whilst at Hogarth I was working on big brands, re-touching, finished art, quickcutting press ads and also learning HTML5 adbuilder programs such as Celtra, Sizmek and Adobe Animate. Towards the end of 2017 I decided a change was in order and took a Finished Artist position at WiTH Collective in Surry Hills, whilst this was a great opportunity, a position on the Central Coast came up as a Senior Graphic Designer at The KDR Group/IKON Signs which allowed me to be closer to my young family. In 2019 I headed back to the city as a finished artist for Metropolis Agency, working on everything property. At Metropolis I have made small videos in after effects and also completed a couple of html5 campaigns, as well working on digital IM’s, websites, eDMs etc and of course everything print.
