Kia ora – I'm Liv, a freelance full-stack designer from Aotearoa New Zealand

I've been a designer for 15+ years, where most of my career so far has been spent working for design studios – creating logos, brand identities, putting together advertising and marketing collateral, and designing and building websites.

I enjoy the creative process; finding ways to visually solve design problems. As a result of many years experience as a designer, I’ve developed my own approach to how I design logos, brands and website.

Despite being in an industry that more often than not has a 'keep your cards close to your chest' attitude, I believe that by discussing process and being open about the way we do things (or fail trying to do things), we all benefit.

Let's grow together

I want to share what I've learnt so far – and what I'm currently learning – to guide you on your journey and support your growth as a designer, step by step (or newsletter by newsletter).

There isn’t just one way to do things, so it’s my hope that the resources I share will help you improve your own creative process and become more confident in your design practice.

You can join me on this journey by signing up to my newsletter below. In each monthly issue I’ll email you 3 quick prompts, especially created to help you become a more confident designer.
