About Me
I am currently studying a Bachelor in Web Design and Media Production (2021 expected) and am passionate about website/app design and making things visually more engaging to the user/audience. Currently I am working with the Department of Defence and manage a website named The Runway. It is a a professional development portal where complex, theoretical air and space power information is presented to users in an accessible and easy to understand way. The Runway is designed to be a self-directed and personalised experience for the individual user.
In addition to fulltime work I am also working on a side project @riinger and am determined to be my own boss while always looking and thinking about the next big idea / innovation which will allow me to do this. I am constantly thinking of ideas which have the potential to effect attitude towards keeping physically active and with the right group of people around me, I believe I can make this happen. Just looking to add a few more pieces to the puzzle.
2022 will be a year of developing myself in the Web Design / Graphic Design and overall business space in launching a new business venture or even joining others. I am passionate about networking and building relationships which will allow me to do so. So please reach out if you are just getting started in the design and creative space.
