More information
I am a Brisbane-based designer working across exhibitions, environmental graphics, marketing, and publication design, with a strong focus on cultural storytelling and public engagement. My practice is grounded in a belief that design can help people feel connected to place, culture, history, and shared knowledge.
I enjoy working with museums, galleries, and cultural organisations to create experiences that are welcoming and meaningful, supporting audiences to explore, understand, and connect more deeply with the stories being told.
My work spans:
– Exhibition and interpretive graphic design that supports curatorial storytelling
– Environmental graphics and wayfinding systems that help visitors navigate and engage with spaces
– Marketing and event campaigns
– Publication and editorial design for exhibitions, collections, and educational resources
I have contributed to major projects with institutions including the Australian Museum, Queensland Museum, Science Museum (London) and Bluey’s World Brisbane, collaborating closely with curators, educators, and project teams to bring ideas to life in accessible and visually engaging ways.
I am available for freelance and contract work supporting exhibition design, interpretation, environmental graphics, marketing, and publication design across cultural and public sector projects.
