I’ve spent over 15 years working in the digital space, across web design, digital systems, and project management. Over that time, I’ve taken on many roles from designer and problem-solver to project manager and business owner which has given me a practical, well-rounded understanding of what it takes to build and look after a website that actually works for a business.
Before moving to Taranaki, I ran my own web design business in Australia, WPDesigners, supporting small businesses with WordPress websites, digital improvements, and ongoing support. Running my own business gave me a real appreciation for how overwhelming the digital side can feel when you’re already wearing so many hats and how helpful it is to have someone you trust to guide you through it.
Alongside this, I’ve also worked with a Melbourne-based digital agency, Clickify, helping with business systems, SEO tasks, and development work. Working within an agency environment helped me strengthen my technical skills, streamline my processes, and contribute to projects focused on long-term growth.
Today, CYDM brings all of that experience together. I focus on clear communication, practical solutions, and a collaborative approach, helping small business owners feel supported and in control of their digital presence, without the overwhelm.
Digital Coordinator & Creative
Located in the heart of Stratford, our office is a warm, friendly hub where collaboration comes naturally. I share the space with my talented office buddies — Forge Solutions and Banx IT Solutions— two locally trusted teams specialising in digital marketing, social media, hosting, and IT services.
Working alongside these knowledgeable and supportive businesses means there’s always someone nearby to collaborate with, get expert advice from, or simply share a good laugh. It’s a community-focused space designed to help local businesses grow with confidence.
Business owners often tell me they feel overwhelmed by the digital world. My job is to make that world feel lighter.
I take a down-to-earth, collaborative approach, getting to know who you are, what you do, and the vision behind your business. From there, we work together to create digital tools that genuinely help you grow.
Whether you’re starting from scratch, refreshing your brand, launching a website, or needing ongoing support, I’m here to guide the process from start to finish (and afterwards).
