About

 

Renee is a Senior Designer living and working in the beautiful city of Melbourne, Australia.

One of the reasons why she loves the field of design is because you don’t have to be limited to one speciality. Renee enjoys working on a variety of projects and is highly skilled in designing for both print and screen. Renee also enjoys working with people that are as passionate about what they do as she is.

Over the past decade, Renee’s work has been recognised by the Driven by Design Awards in both Melbourne and Sydney. During her career, Renee has had the pleasure of working with a variety of clients, some of which include Dulux, Crown Hotels, Media Super, Metricon Homes, Pause Fest, Ticketmaster, Aesop, Brien Holden Vision Institute, Hammond Care, Hawthorn Arts Centre, Rocksteady Records, Mission Australia, CCI Giving, Diabetes Australia, Bridge Housing and a range of start-up businesses.

Renee has experience working with both agile and waterfall methodologies, as well as providing quotes based on the project requirements. She thrives on collaboration and is always committed to the team and the client's success. Renee loves continuous learning and is very excited to see where her career journey goes — mainly contributing to equal representation within leadership roles, and in the creative industry in general.
