Hello, I'm Jacqui
Who doesn't love having a good stalk at the face behind a business? So, I thought I should make that nice and easy for you!
When people ask me what my job is, I say...
"graphic design."
When people ask me what my hobbies are...I say,
"graphic design."
When they ask if I have any other hobbies...I say,
"nope, that's it."
So, that's me. A *slightly* design obsessed graphic designer.
11-year-old me. Into taking photos and drawing letters. Right on the cusp of discovering my love of graphic design.
I've been designing since I was an early teenager and saw a need online to help less design-saavy people out with my own *not-so-great* design skills. I was using MS Paint! But look, practice makes perfect and by the time I got to university several years later I was ready to take on the world.
Fast forward 6 years from graduating with my Bachelor of Graphic Design and I absolutely love running my graphic design business full time as I work with women all over Australia and the world to create a brand they can be truely proud of. I wouldn't have it any other way!
White Deer is a business I run from my home in Bendigo, rural Victoria. I share an office with my wonderful husband and no, surprisingly we don't get sick of each other!
I love helping others, looking at pretty colours, encouraging young people and loving everyone around me as much as God has loved me. I believe life is more than money and work and that we all have the responsibility to live selflessly - because if we're all selfless everyone is looked after.
Design for me is a way to put my little mark on the world. To help a client grow their business to attract their ideal client. To watch a client's business grow from a start-up, into a huge success as they follow their passion and take risks.
Not only do I love DOING the designing…I love TEACHING the designing. I love teaching small biz owners how to take control of their own graphics.
I believe good design should be for EVERYONE!
…Whether you have the money to hire a designer or not. Because I know the power of good design and I want to see that permeate every. single. small. biz!
You may have seen a glimpse of my other business? (Two businesses, am I crazy!? I hear ya.) I’ve partenered with my beautiful friend, Fideliz Cruz, to create Wild Lily Resources - where we produce Christian resources! We create products to help people draw closer to God. To equip them, encourage them and help them grow. You can buy any of our products here (free postage within Australia) xx
But anyway! I think that's all you need to know for now.
I’d love to get to know you more over at DIY Design My Biz! 💕
