Senior Graphic Designer | Finished Artist

PRINT | DIGITAL | LONG-FORM DOCUMENT DESIGN | PACKAGING | POINT OF SALE

Hi! I’m Kim, a senior designer with 25 years experience delivering production-ready artwork across print, digital and environmental touchpoints.

I specialise in taking ideas from brief to beautifully finished, technically precise artwork, combining strong creative thinking with a meticulous eye for detail. I’m known for being reliable, efficient and calm under pressure, particularly on complex, high-volume or deadline-driven projects.

Based in the Byron Shire, Northern NSW, I work with agencies, in-house teams and businesses of all sizes, delivering considered, consistent outcomes across every touchpoint.

Services

I help brands turn ideas into clear, well-crafted design that works across print, digital and environmental touchpoints. From concept through to final artwork, I deliver on-brand creative that’s thoughtfully designed, technically sound and ready for production.

  • I provide end-to-end print design, managing projects from initial concept through to production-ready files. My experience covers a wide range of applications, including reports, brochures, marketing collateral, pitches, newsletters, and large-format work such as exhibition stands, bus wraps and OOH.

    I specialise in long-document design, transforming complex content into clear, structured, visually engaging layouts that communicate key information effectively.

  • I design digital assets including eDMs, social media content, web graphics and campaign materials. All work is created with clarity, consistency and platform requirements in mind, ensuring assets are on-brand, engaging and fit for purpose.

    I also provide photo retouching and product/POS mockups to support campaigns, presentations and internal sign-off.

  • I work confidently with complex packaging dielines, adapting creative across multiple SKUs and delivering precise, production-ready artwork. I have strong experience setting up files for special print finishes such as foiling, embossing, spot varnish and specialty inks, ensuring consistency and high-quality outcomes at shelf.

  • POS is a key area of expertise. I design across a wide range of formats including floorstands, gondola ends, wall units, hotspots, shelf strips, wobblers, hangsells, mesh ends and decals. Every solution is designed to communicate clearly, align with brand guidelines, and work effectively in real retail environments.

  • I am highly experienced in rolling out a single creative across multiple formats, specs and channels. Campaigns are managed with precision and efficiency, ensuring visual and brand consistency, technical accuracy, and smooth delivery across print, digital, social, OOH and in-store touchpoints.

    My methodical, detail-focused approach safeguards brand integrity and quality at every stage ensuring all artwork is accurate, consistent and optimised for its final output.

  • I create thoughtful brand identities that feel considered, flexible and built to last. Logos, colour palettes, typography systems and brand guidelines are designed to work cohesively across all applications, supporting recognition and long-term growth.

  • I design and build Squarespace websites from the ground up, focusing on structure and user flow to ensure clarity and usability.

    I also provide ongoing updates and maintenance to keep content current, visually consistent, and functioning smoothly as business needs evolve.

  • I have working familiarity with Premiere Pro and After Effects, allowing me to support projects with basic video edits and simple motion assets where required. These skills are part of my ongoing professional development.
