In my current role as Design Lead at Southern Cross University for the past four years, I have successfully led the development of the university\u2019s design narrative and established a consistent and recognizable brand. Prior to this, I worked as a Design Lead for Spectrum Group\/Ovato and Senior Designer at Ogilvy, where I played a crucial role in developing the design narrative of these businesses.<\/p>\n
Before venturing into the advertising and marketing industry, I served as a design academic at both UNSAAWD and UTS, and also worked as a casual art director for several magazines. Concurrently, I ran my own business, which included a record label, touring agency, and CD manufacturing business that I still manage on the side. My previous experience also includes work in publishing
\nand magazines, see next page for details.<\/p>\n
In my spare time, I build digital and web solutions for small to medium-sized businesses and creators, while also pursuing my passion for fine arts, including painting and digital creation. Additionally, I play the synthesizer in a darkwave band and participate in other musical projects. I\u2019m also a JP and a board member of the Lismore regional art gallery, where I actively contribute to the local community.<\/p>\n
My diverse range of experiences in design, academia, entrepreneurship, and community involvement, combined with my passion for the arts, make me a valuable asset to any organization looking for a creative and versatile team member.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
