I've spent 8 years designing presentations that do more than look good; they convince people. Pitch decks that secured funding. Strategy decks that got sign-off. Board materials that made complex ideas impossible to ignore. My background is in graphic design and strategic design, which means I think about your audience before your slides. Structure, flow, and visual hierarchy aren't afterthoughts. What I'm good at: Pitch decks · Investor presentations · Board reports · Data visualisation · Slide templates · PowerPoint · Canva · Google Slides · Microsoft Powerpoint How I work: I keep things simple. I ask the right questions upfront, keep you updated as I go, and deliver work that rarely needs more than one round of changes. No hand-holding needed on either side. If your presentation needs to land, let's talk
