The reason I am doing graphic design: I like people.
I love the feeling when a clients face lights up when you have nailed their particular problem.
Graphic design can be cold, political or it can be high-end and complex.
But as for me, I like helping people with my skills. If that's doing a freebie or something expensive, I can't wait to get started.

St Philips Anglican Church
Freelance Designer
I have been doing freelance design for St Philips Anglican Church Cottesloe since I started Graphic Design at Curtin University. It has been a real pleasure and a fantastic learning experience. The work has always been challenging, as doing forward thinking design for churches is always interesting. I have also had the great pleasure of being commissioned to re-brand St Philips: I am loving this relationship and am so excited to see it progress!
