I am a brand strategist who is also a working graphic designer. This unique combination of skills was discovered during my Masters degree and has been honed in the 10+ years since. My talent lies in developing brands that are robust, intentional and unforgettable. My approach to design is deeply rooted in strategic insight, and my strategic thinking is underpinned by an excitement for research and the drive to identify trends and patterns.

PORTSIDE WHARF
Portside Wharf, iconic Australian lifestyle destination was in need of a total brand overhaul. After more than a decade of landmark retail and hospitality experiences for Brisbane, Portside Wharf needed to be re-solidified as a forward-thinking retail and lifestyle destination. To align with their new elevated positioning, we needed to rethink the brand from the ground up. Throughout this process I hosted multiple workshops and company-wide meetings - digging deeper to ensure all stakeholders were aligned on the objectives and ideal outcomes. I oversaw every aspect of this project, from brand strategy, copy writing, image selection, website design and development, and advertising collateral. In addition to my role as strategist, I also crafted a series of illustrations that were used to express the precinct’s new offering.

Overall, we created a brand that was honest, optimistic, professional and expressive.
