Hi, I'm Mel
I'm a qualified Graphic Designer with 22 years of industry experience across the UK and New Zealand. I've worked with a broad mix of clients, from global multinationals to small start-ups, and have a strong passion for print. I thrive on creating brand identities, album artwork, editorial layouts, merchandise, packaging, annual reports, and corporate brochures.
After completing my degree, I began my career at CDC, where I discovered a lasting love for publication design. The big OE took me to London, where I freelanced before landing my dream job at Peacock, a design studio specialising in the music industry. There, I had the incredible opportunity to work on album artwork for artists including The Beatles, Elton John, James Blunt, Enya, and Iron Maiden.
Since leaving Peacock in 2014, I've continued freelancing, broadening my skills into branding and advertising. I've collaborated with clients such as Cellar Maison and CTV Outside Broadcast, while still working with high-profile names in the music industry.
Now back in New Zealand and based in Christchurch, I’ve enjoyed immersing myself in the local market, helping grow brands like Ekos Kāmahi and David Reid Homes Canterbury. More recently, I’ve expanded into social media content creation and marketing.
If you're after reliable, professional design that's high-quality and on budget, I'd love to help bring your ideas to life.
