ABOUT

Originally from New Zealand and based in New York City, I am an award-winning album cover designer. My skills cover graphic design, photography, songwriting, audio and music production, music performance, writing and video production.

I have worked in all aspects of multimedia with specialization in the music and entertainment-based fields including major and indie record labels, directly with artists and for live concerts and events. I have worked across all musical genres from hip-hip to classical, Top 40 pop to indie rock, covering an A-Z of New Zealand and international artists. I have worked campaigns for the releases of major international titles from The Rolling Stones, Robbie Williams, Coldplay, Bruce Springsteen, Massive Attack, The Chemical Brothers, Snoop Dogg and Adele to The Beatles and Madonna. My work with New Zealand’s foremost live concert promoters handling artwork production includes design for international and local shows such as the annual “Big Day Out” festival to large-scale shows from U2, Oasis, Steve Earle, The Beastie Boys, Lionel Richie, to New Order and Emmylou Harris.
