GRACE
The creative mind behind Disgrace Design
“My creative journey began in the mid-'80s in New Zealand, drawing visuals on the walls of my family home. Even as a child, I recognised the power of visuals to captivate and connect with people.
Decades later, by combining artistic talent, confident creative direction and hybrid design expertise... I harness that same power to craft compelling visuals for diverse clients around the globe—helping them tell their stories and capture the attention of millions worldwide."

nothing ventured, nothing gained.
10 years ago, I left New Zealand on a solo adventure across the world.
Armed with a one-way ticket, a heavy backpack, and a powerful laptop, I set off alone to explore the unknown.
I had no idea that leaving the shores of my beautiful island would lead me to launch a boutique creative studio across three countries, and crafting moving content for some of the world’s biggest brands.
When I'm not crafting visuals
You can find me boating the canals of Amsterdam, browsing antique markets, scoffing popcorn at the cinema, and travelling across continents.
When visiting home (NZ), you’ll find me wine tasting with friends, surfing with my brothers, cooking with my sisters, fishing with my Dad, and sipping a G&T with my Mum.
Raised in a big family, I learned the value of teamwork, leadership, bringing people together and creating order from chaos.
"I thrive on curiosity, collaboration, and crafting meaningful work — so if you’re looking for a creative partner to execute ideas and bring concepts to life, get in contact".
