ABOUT

I have over 18 years of diverse design experience. During this time, I have managed my own business, worked in specialist design studios, and headed up national corporate communication teams. I consistently deliver creative and individualised design solutions that are focused on the unique requirements of my clients and their project needs.

Design plays a critical role in business communications. It makes business messages tangible. I am skilled at quickly developing considered and high impact design solutions that balance the needs of both internal and external stakeholders. I have also recently completed a Post Graduate in UX and website design to develop my skills. 

Recently I completed a Post Graduate in UX and website design. I’m currently utilizing my new skills with the Suncorp UX Team helping them with user experience research and journeys, interviews and creating personas, journey mapping and designing wireframes. The project I’m currently working on is to improve traffic to low use intranet pages by conducting both qualitative and quantitive research.

I’m energetic and believe in a harmonious working environment. I like being busy, but ultimately I have a calm head and work extremely well under pressure. I take the time to build relationships within the business and with external stakeholders. Having these working relationships allows jobs to run smoothly from brief to delivery.

Belle is my ‘go to’ visual design resource, she never disappoints. In bids and tenders, her ability to turn around engaging and
‘on message’ graphics in a timely and extremely calm manner make her one of my most valued resources, and integral to winning submissions.

Today’s professional design studio requires three broad attributes among its team – creative and innovative flare, managerial and organisational expertise, and a personable, customer-focused approach.

Belinda has the very rare quality of possessing all of these attributes which she executes with unique aplomb, poise, and charm.
