Non-profit ARISE were awarded a Google Grant to get valuable free adverts in Google searches.

TeamPB is a website jointly run by The Prostate Cancer Charity and Breast Cancer Care. They provided the visual design and I made it all work in WordPress. It’s a blog, but also invaluable for recruiting new runners via online forms.
This new Association needed a website to promote their organisation, sign up members and advertises their conference and other events. I designed their website and built it using WordPress. The site has three complex membership forms which we set up to send data directly to their online client database, Salesforce.
I designed the cover and inlay for my Dad’s woodturning DVD. A quick and simple task, especially since he was able to provide a selection of eye-catching photos to choose from. The artwork was sent to the company printing the DVDs, following their guidelines on dimensions and quality.

I built this website — Dementia Friendly Environments — for the Department of Health. The site was built to follow Australian government guidelines on accessibility, and uses the corporate branding of Victorian goverment websites.
