I’ve worked alongside Kelly at one of Australia’s legendary independent ad agencies, and most recently engaging her design skills from her own studio. Now, as then, she is a first-rate designer with a wide range of capabilities, and the added advantage of being a thoroughly delightful human to work with.

Kelly was an absolute pleasure to work with during my time at Hunter Water. She was the creative force behind many of our campaigns designs. She’s an expert at bringing brands to life, and can easily go from creating professional looking reports to vibrant and engaging advertising collateral. Kelly is a wonderful communicator and I would highly recommend her to absolutely anyone in need of branding and graphic design.
