It’s the story of one woman’s long-term love affair with graphic design. Plus another woman who is living la vida social media.

Together, we’re Powdermonkey Design. A boutique branding and social media agency based in the beautiful Adelaide Hills.

We also love meeting new people, helping other businesses be brilliant, and long walks on the beach.

But that last part probably isn’t relevant here…

It’s been over 20 years since I first stepped out of TAFE and into a studio for my first paid gig. Since then I have worked for ad agencies, print houses and in-house for various companies, big and small. For a while I taught graphic design at nights, back at my old TAFE.

In 2012 I opened my own studio, Powdermonkey Design.

When I say ‘studio’, of course I mean me, with a laptop, at my kitchen table.

It’s this passion for graphic design, years of print and web design know-how and my experience running a micro-business that lie at the heart of what I do – using design to help my clients build their businesses.

Let’s get creative!

Prior to joining Powdermonkey Design, I spent 18 years in the hair and beauty industry. Performing therapies turned to managing beauty salons, a makeup academy, and a beauty e-commerce website!

I always enjoyed supporting these small business owners and contributing to the reputation and growth of their brands – which is why I made the move to Social Media Marketing.

A few years in and I am absolutely loving the variety of clients I work with and tailoring the social media strategy and content to suit their needs.

Let’s get social!
