Starting out in the design industry in 1995 and working as designer and web developer back when you had to handcode websites and learn design skills without computers, I have seen a gamut of changes and taken on numerous roles throughout the 28 years in the industry.
Some of these roles & titles include: Graphic Designer, Web Designer / Developer, Project Manager, with projects covering coding, animations, design (print & web), virtual reality, specification writing, documentation & processes, photography, training, teaching, branding, logo design, SEO, digital marketing, illustrations, and account manager / print manger & good old retail customer service in a design capacity. Working in combination of in-house, freelance & subcontract positions to government & large corporate and small businesses across many different industries.
“Unlike some creatives who are only creative or some tech people who are just tech …. I come from an arena of both playgrounds, and that is what is given to my all my clients”
My skills and experience are very varied, what i like to do is to really find and create practical solutions for clients, it means I can draw from both my creative and technical / practical mind to work out what will do the job in the best way possible for all of us. I like to have relationships with my clients so that I can find out their business, their available resources and fit in with services that work for them not just for this project but also by perhaps considering their future plans or projects so that we can not reinvent the wheel but accommodate future plans wherever possible.
