[why]

Design for small businesses, non-profit & for-purpose organisations. Designing positive change through honest identies and communication.

After years of working in the commercial design world, I began questioning the true impact of design and communication. While these are undeniably powerful instruments, they also carry significant responsibility.


The realization struck me that the world we live in isn’t broken—it is functioning exactly as it was designed to. This sparked a deeper interest in examining how design influences systemic issues and how it might be repurposed for positive change.


I’ve grown particularly interested in understanding the communication challenges faced by non-profit organizations whose values align with mine. These challenges range from high-level messaging to the practical application of design elements, such as graphics and branding.


A persistent barrier is the lack of access to professional, high-quality design services, coupled with limited recognition of the transformative power of effective design. This gap often hinders non-profits from achieving their goals and maximizing their impact.

❋ Branding and Identity Design

Your brand is more than a logo—it's how people perceive and connect with your organization. I help NGOs create a cohesive identity that reflects their mission, values, and story. From defining colors, typography, and imagery to crafting detailed brand guidelines, I ensure your visuals consistently resonate with your audience and build trust over time.

❋ Campaign Design

I design impactful visuals for awareness, fundraising, and advocacy campaigns. This includes social media graphics, posters, banners, and even branded merchandise. Whatever the medium, I ensure your campaign stands out and communicates your message clearly and effectively.

❋ Digital Content Creation & Web development

From infographics that simplify complex data to engaging newsletters and polished presentations, I create digital content that informs and inspires. I also collaborate on website designs to ensure they are visually appealing, user-friendly, and aligned with your goals.

❋ Art Direction

I oversee the creative vision for campaigns and projects, ensuring all visuals work together to tell a powerful story. This includes planning visual strategies, directing photo and video shoots, and collaborating with your team to create cohesive and impactful content.

❋ Event & Community Design

I help NGOs elevate their events with professional branding and materials, such as signage, programs, and displays. I also design community-focused campaigns for volunteer recruitment, local initiatives, or interactive experiences to engage your audience.

❋ Consulting & Communication Trainings [coming soon]

In addition to design work, I provide consultations to improve your branding and campaign strategies. I also offer workshops to train your team in design basics.
