I'm Emily and I'm a graphic designer...

While studying multimedia at university I became really interested in the design side of projects, loving the idea of being able to combine art, illustration, typography, colour & photography. I completed a Diploma of Graphic Design in 2006 and have been working full time in an advertising agency since April 2007.

 

Why design?I love what I do and can't imagine myself doing anything else. A friend introduced me to Photoshop in high school and I haven't looked back. Over the next few years I want to gain as much experience as I can and continue to improve my skills and knowledge.

 

After travelling earlier this year I'm now seeking full time employment in a creative/design agency.

 

When I'm not designing, I like to take photos, dance, go to gym, play wii and go to the beach. I'm interested in art, photography, travelling, health and fitness and dancing.
