I'm a strategic brand designer based in Wagga Wagga with 17+ years of experience helping regional businesses compete on positioning rather than budget.
My work focuses on authentic visual identity - the kind that reflects who you actually are, not what you think you should be. I've spent nearly two decades across commercial printing, signwriting, web development, and strategic branding to understand how these pieces connect.
Why do I do this Regional businesses deserve the same strategic advantage that city agencies reserve for corporate clients. I help translate complex positioning into clear visual systems that work across everything from signage to digital presence.
Outside client work, I run THRIVE - providing free professional infrastructure to community problem-solvers across regional Australia. It's the work that actually matters.
I also create art. Digital painting gives me a different language for ideas that don't fit inside client briefs. You'll find some of that work in the store.
