Following achieving my Bachelor of Media Arts Degree, in 2002, I successfully completed a Master of Arts (Design) in 2013.

​

I also completed a Graduate Diploma of Teaching (Secondary) at the University of Waikato - with an 'A' average in 2011.

​

My 15+ years experience in the design industry, includes nearly four years as a Senior Designer and six years as an In-house Designer within a marketing team. In this time I also held the role of Marketing Coordinator. 

I have experience designing within web based companies and over six years experience in the print industry.

​

I feel confident with marketing solutions and campaigns from fruition to completion.

​

I am comfortable and enjoy working within a team environment as well as autonomously if and when required.

​

I have tutored at WINTEC, teaching the Digital Publishing paper, to 2nd & 3rd year students, and STAR courses. 

​

For over two years I was the Secretary of the 'New Zealand Schools Visual Arts Charitable Trust',

which ran an annual photographic competition for schools nationwide. I was also a founding member.

​

I have had success with being a finalist and featuring in the 2007 & 2012 World of Wearable Art (WOW) in Wellington (see right).
