GRAPHIC DESIGNER

Warner Bros. Discovery
2022 - 2023

My next step took me to Warner Bros. Discovery, where as a Graphic Designer I worked on everything from eDMs and marketing materials to high-profile presentations, event posters and signage. A personal highlight was the WBD 2023 Upfront event, which was a chance to show off Warner Bros. Discovery’s diverse portfolio across all sorts of different touchpoints both physical and digital.

Origami Ltd
2021 - 2022

JUNIOR GRAPHIC DESIGNER

As a designer at Origami, I worked across established brands including TVNZ, Sanford, Ando insurance and Nectar Mortgages – as well as exciting new ones like Harry’s Milk Delivery, Cove Linen Co. and Bluebell. I loved that variety and the chance to see how different brands develop and grow over time in a wide-ranging role that included strategic work as well as design and marketing. At Origami I also had the chance to expand my creative skills with a particular focus on printing and production.

I have worked on several freelance jobs over the past few years on top of my full time work.
