About Me
Hey!
I am Pat Lindley a digital/graphic designer, photographer, film maker and freelancer based in Canberra, Australia.
By day I work as a Senior Graphic Designer for Fresh Creative. By night I am a creative genius. My current work is mostly print-based but I love to get my hands on any project that comes my way including digital and video works.
I am a passionate photographer with a positive outlook on life. I am always exploring new angles and compositions to reflect this passion. My photographic work is more than just capturing a moment in time, it’s about finding a unique angle in life that no one has seen before.
I find the challenge of solving a problem to be very exciting. A problem is just something that requires a creative solution. Life should be about questioning everything in order to improve on what was there before if the situation requries it to.
I love to explore the production of live theatre and have been the Technical Director of a number of shows both for St Clare’s College and other theatre companies. Exploring technology can be one way to create a better live experience for the audience. I am currently exploring 3D projection mapping and other video and sound scape methods to enhance a live experience.
I am creative, fast, adaptive, and an excellent team player with strong verbal and written communication skills and excellent technical knowledge. My personal characteristics are loyal, honest, integrity, caring, compassionate and driven.
My Myers Briggs personality is Extraverted, iNtuitive, Thinking, Judging (ENTJ).
