Overview
I predominately like working on all types of non fiction and recently designed a cookbook for an Australian Masterchef winner. But that's not to say I don't enjoy doing the odd fiction cover too! There's hundreds of covers out there that I feel don't relate to the books at all. When designing, I like to read as much material as possible to really capture what the book is about for the reader.

(2 months)
Harper Collins needed someone with in-house experience to jump in and stem the flow of work.
Using the briefing software Wrike, I worked together with editorial, sales and publicity on marketing materials. I designed various pitch documents, retail web banners, outdoor posters and book launch invites. Each year Harper Collins Australia hold a big sales conference highlighting their twenty biggest authors of next year, for this I was tasked solely to brand the entire conference. This included designing logos, brochures, placemats, invites, nimlock banners and lots more.

Worked on a number of projects with many clients such as Hachette Australia, Allen & Unwin, both Simon & Schuster UK and Australia offices, Harper Collins New Zealand and TED books. These brought great challenges such as designing my first cookbook for an Australian master chef winner, adapting to design both Non Fiction and Fiction covers for the Australian market to holding video conference calls with TED books at 2am with New York and London simultaneously

(over 5 years)
I enjoyed just under five great years at Simon and Schuster. Starting as a paid intern artworking Illustrated books, I then progressed to a junior two months later and a mid-weight designer the following year. I over saw between 40-50 books at one given time all at different stages of production, so time management was key. I’d often work with freelance designers, print repro houses, art direct & organise high profile photoshoots and communicate with their sister offices in New York & Australia.
