Matt started his design career in 2003, after finishing his bachelors degree in Photography (Bphoto) — Creative Advertising. He started working for Bauer Media Group, where he honed his skills contributing to the creation of multi-platform magazine titles.

In 2008 he spent the earlier part of his career working at Australian commercial interiors company Interiorco, where he discovered the importance of complementing architectural and interior design practices, to design and consider how brands were expressed in the built environment.

More recently he was Head of Brand Design at property market leader Ballymore, successfully implementing a digital marketing transformation, increasing the focus on the customer journey, while striving to create resonance with what’s designed and what’s messaged through all forms of storytelling.

The work involved a broad range of projects including printed matter, publications and exterior and interior spaces. He provided creative leadership and cross-pollination of these insights and ideas to clients and colleagues, ensuring the brand language was applied consistently across all areas of the group.
