For 2025, my big side-hustle is going to be running a graphic design Instagram over at @satiricalgraphics where I share brand-new posters, memes, and illustrations that I’ve designed at least 2x a week. I’m writing this blurb about the project on January 3rd, so by the time you’re reading these words the account could either be a wild success or a dismal failure. There’s no way for me to predict the outcome. You know more about how it’s going right now than I do!

Beyond just being a test of my social media savvy and ability to promote myself, it should also be a good opportunity to practice new aesthetic skills (illustration, 3D modelling, copywriting, having a cheeky sense of humor, so on and so forth)

I recently spent the last 3 years working as an Edit Assist across a large slate of reality TV programming. Day-to-day duties included transcode, ingest, grouping / syncing rushes, delivering dailies / exports, running QC, and delivering the episodes as an online editor. I’ve also been a motion-graphics all rounder during my time on these shows, helping to design and export supers or full-frame graphics when needed.

Currently working on The Chase Australia for ITV.

Every year, I make a boutique scrapbook for my partner to celebrate our anniversary: photoshopping together fake memorabilia referencing everything that we’ve experienced together over the past 12 months. I’ve collected a few samples here of my work that are the most impressive, either because they required intense photo treatment or have a fully-detailed original print layout.

This is only a small excerpt. If you’d like to see the dozens of other Photoshopped in-jokes I put together for this project: sorry. That’s between us. I did make it for her, after all, not you.

I was invited to the 2024 TV Week Logies to act as a professional seat-filler. My goal was to appear on-camera as much as possible without disrupting the telecast. I'm happy to report that I appeared onscreen for a total of 38 seconds and 17 frames, thus qualifying me for an IMDb credit as "Self" - and all done seamlessly without interrupting the flow or direction of the ceremony

(I’ve edited the clips for social media, gussying them up with graphics or mixing in the Borat clip as a lighthearted prank.)

Some of my lovely comedian friends used to produce, host, and star on a biweekly improv talk show at the Chippo Hotel in Surry Hills. For about two years, I did their logo design as well as posters and promotional graphics. I also occasionally put together fun promos for holidays, or special occasions like the 1 year anniversary. I love my friends !

A few years ago, I was fortunate enough to spend some time working at Channel 7 as a broadcast graphic designer, helping to push out graphics for their live-to-air news programming. I primarily worked on Sunrise and The Morning Show, two of the channel's most popular shows.

The work in this reel includes segment openers or newsreel graphics where I was both the motion graphic designer executing the final delivery of the project and the creative lead determining the aesthetic of the design.

Many, many years ago, I worked full-time as a junior graphic designer for Generic Publications, the internal agency for Harvey Norman's print, web and catalog advertising. My main role was on the Ireland team as an international client, helping them build their brand in a new region.

I operated as lead or co-lead artist on several catalogues and print briefs.
