Who Am I?
Hello, my name is Ethan and I am a designer in Meanjin (Brisbane)!
Well, then truth is I wear a lot of hats; I'm an artist, musician, graphic designer, photographer, creative director and sometimes more.
That's what drew me to design—the versatility! I spent high school teaching myself visual art, before taking a big creative turn and teaching myself piano, audio production and song writing. After high school, I invested a lot of time into music. I was always very determined for everything to look as polished as possible—from the cover artwork to the branding and visual identity—so I set everything up to seem as if I was affiliated with the label I created.
I began to realise that I enjoyed more than just making music; I loved designing the art, visual identity, concepts, branding, advertising, and more. I wanted to explore being the kind of creative who could work on almost any project, so that each project could be a new adventure!
So, I began studying at SAE so I could become a designer and now I'll soon be graduating in December with a bachelor of design and visual communication. SAE is known for its practical, hands-on, and intensive student work. It pushed me to think outside the box, reimagine my creativity, and innovate—never settling for just the standard.
Every industry has design,
Design has so many possible roles
I'm so excited to work with you to make your project a reality.
