OVER 24 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN GRAPHIC DESIGN AND PRE PRESS PRODUCTION

I am a freelance graphic designer based in Ballina NSW. I have over 24 years of experience in graphic design and pre press production. 

​

I'm originally from Lennox Head, growing up in the beachside town and attending high school in Ballina. I did my certificate in graphic design in Brisbane at the institute of Design in 1998. My first job was working in the Whitsundays for 4 years for a printery, designing all manner of things for the local community and tourism Queensland. I moved back home to join a graphic house in Byron Bay, then onto setting up a design studio and production system for Solprom Advertising & Marketing and Coaster Kings. I was their creative director and pre press operational coordinator along with many other different jobs. I have gained much experience in my years and won the business many awards along the way in sustainable printing. 

​

I love to paint as well, and can be flexible with most jobs small and big. I have an experienced background and understanding in pre press production, and working to deadlines. I'm also good with branding and aware of how colour presents across different mediums.  

​

Skyblue Graphics is my new business venture. I am looking forward to being creative whilst  having the flexibility to be there for my family. I am looking forward to supporting my local community and gaining new clients as my business grows.

​

I also have experience with the special needs community and are aware how powerful a good visual social story can be. I am happy to work with families to produce personal work to suit their needs.

​

I look forward to working with you on your next project.
