“Why fit in when you were born to stand out?”
- Dr. Seuss
Good design isn't about being fancy, being trendy, or bleeding edge. It's about standing out; the communication, the brand, the identity. I have always been one to advocate for this, since, to me, I have learnt that doing something new, something different, something distinct says a lot about you. Even the greatest products, designs or concepts can miss the mark when it doesn't stand out.
This quote is how I would describe myself. However, that's not all to me. Ever since a young age, I've loved movies, video games, photography, technology, and graphic design. With this, I decided to study Industrial Design and Media Design at Victoria University, so I could experience the best of my passions.
My devotion to this work has enabled me to develop a broad set of skills that bridge the gap between the creative and technical worlds.
