Resume

Hi, I'm Kyle, a creative and business professional based on the Gold Coast, Australia. My past creative work is wide-spread, concentrating on brand identities, editorial design, social media marketing, analytics, photography and videography. My corporate work on the other hand, has taken me from jobs in the education sector to one of the largest conglomerates in Australia. 

As a Creative Consultant, I specialise in bringing new and established brands to life by elevating visuals with refined craftsmanship and thoughtful attention to detail. I work closely and collaborate with stakeholders to ensure a holistic and refined approach to my projects.

I come with over a half a decade of design experience, working with many institutions particularly within the sport, education and legal sectors, including Bond University, Coomera Anglican College, and Borgeaud & Company. As a young professional, I am uniquely placed to bring a fresh perspective, eager eyes, and years of experience in concert.
