2017 – 2018
Providing a solid foundation of skills to a new generation of up and coming designers. Mentoring and leading a range of people from different backgrounds through the notion of user-centered design. We cover Adobe CC, Sketch and Invision programs through a variety of briefs that encompasses press print, packaging, digital design, campaign, conceptual thinking, strategy, user experience and user interface. The beauty of this happens all within an environment that emulates a studio. When my students graduate, they are highly capable junior designers.
My main role includes lecturing, delivering, facilitating and contributing to a very current design curriculum in class and through canvas LMS. Along with my teaching duties I am responsible for operational, administration, information session, event and people management all within the day to day running of the Melbourne design school in a small team of three.

2012-2013
Every so often Ill take a break and make a gif. This one is symbolic of a holiday in Tokyo, where I spent 8 months teaching English and Travel. It was great. I think it’s important to take time off from design every now and then.

Conceptual identity development for an NGO in Nepal.
Conscious Impact aim to connect people to each other and their natural environments through community service work, right through out the world.
They first set up camp in Nepal after an earthquake hit in 2015. They began to help to rebuild lives, communities and infrastructure that was lost in the devastation. To this day they have continued to help with the many kind donations and volunteers to help build fully sustainable lives for Nepalese people – long after the media has disappeared.
Conscious Impact continues to build traction behind their brand and business for future goals of working with many other communities around the world affected by disaster or poverty. Though the design solution wasn’t taken forward the core idea of ‘Conscious Impact is you, it is us, it is humanity’, was brought through the visual vernacular of stunning photography and media capturing the Nepalese people and keeping them at the heart of their cause.
