Meet Rachel, founder of Paper & Desk
I’m a graphic designer and publication specialist with over a decade of experience in design and creative direction.
I help founders, businesses, and government clients in Brisbane, Sydney, and Canberra create publications and marketing assets that meet the brief, are on brand, and are delivered on time.
I keep the process smooth and straightforward through clear and consistent communication. I work collaboratively with my clients, value feedback, and focus on creating work that looks good AND that aligns with their goals and timelines. My clients describe me as reliable, flexible, responsive, and easy to work with.
With experience across industries including fashion, lifestyle, real estate, health, education, research, resources, consulting, horticulture, agriculture, and events, I bring a broad perspective to every project to create designs that engage and stand out.
If you’re ready to work with a designer who just gets things, and gets on with it, I would love find out more about how I can help you.
