Hey, I’m Taylor
As a Graphic Designer specializing in Branding, I’ve spent the past seven years working in-house and independently. During this time I’ve been fortunate enough to work with notable brands like Cathay Pacific, MasterCard, and Marriott Hotels & Resorts.
I’m a creative problem solver who thrives on developing close working relationships with clients (and occasionally secret handshakes) while bringing their brand stories and visual identities to life. My design style tends to be simple, deliberate and bold. Photography and colour also play a significant role in most of my work.
Earning my Graphic Design Diploma and B.A. in Visual Arts has given me a solid foundation. Through my studies, I’ve explored design both at home and abroad, which has given me the opportunity to bring a fresh perspective to my work, and to collaborate with some incredibly inspiring people along the way.
