Hello! My name is Sarah Maree Gillespie; I am currently full-time Graphic Designer at Connective Services and freelance Motion and Graphic Designer at Dots Mise Studio. I am based in Melbourne, Australia.

When I was fifteen, I watched Star Wars; Attack of the Clones and view the making of the film – immediately I know what I want to do with my future – to control the digital playground with my wand and wacom pen.

As a designer, I am completely focused and passionate to develop projects that would be full of quirky motion graphics and creative graphic design.

Please feel free to contact me anytime at sarahmareegillespie(at)hotmail(dot)com. If you want to drop a “hi” or have anything you want to share with me then I shall love to hear from you.
