Design & visual identityThe person behind the work
The perspective
has a history.
At sixteen, I made a commitment to contribute to a world that worked better for people. That intention came before the media career, the collapse and the long reconstruction that followed.
Broadcasting taught me how messages and systems work at scale. Living through institutional failure made their human consequences impossible to overlook. Both experiences continue to shape what I build.
“Never Assume Anything™”

the way I look at things.

360P — 360 Degree Perspective
Look again.
Turn the obstacle around. See what else it might give you to work with.
At first glance
There are too many reasons this won’t work.
The cost. The skills. The people we don’t know yet. Each item gets added to the case against the idea, until the list starts making the decision for us.
Put it to work
What have we put on the list—and what have we decided that list means?
Each position offers another way to look. Use the sphere or choose a view above.

Family belongs
in the picture.
Family matters to me. These are some of the people—and other lives—who belong in my story.
Mum, Carillyn, and Dad, Mario. My sisters, Katie and Stephanie. And six nieces and nephews: Deizel, Maya, Holly, Bentley, Maddox and Brooks.

And at home? Coco Soota the cat, and 100 birds. That part of the family has its own place: Fluffington Manor.
A fairly diverse feathered household.
Budgies, scarlet-chested parrots, canaries, Bengalese/society finches, zebra finches, painted firetail finches, king quail, African red-billed firefinches and Gouldian finches.
