Meet slinky!
I'm Sarah (also known as Slinky... more on that later).
Over the last eight years, my business Slinky Did It has helped universities, charities, research institutes and organisations across the public and private sector communicate the positive impact they’re making on the way people work and live.
I believe that design is a collaborative process. Together we’ll explore all the ideas, innovations and quirks that make your organisation unique. Then, I’ll turn these findings into contemporary designs that clearly communicate your goals and message.

My story
(in snack size format!)
Always a creative kid, I worked in the arts industry for 5 years before transitioning to graphic design. After a few back-to-back jobs as an in house designer at architecture studios, I launched Slinky Did It in 2013 and threw myself into my business full-time (complete with feline 2IC) in 2014. And the rest, as they say, is history!
Some of my peeps...
I work with organisations across both the public and private sector that have something positive to contribute to the world. My existing clients include universities, conferences and events, research centres, government agencies and those in the corporate sector who act as agents for change in the way people work and live.

Report design is my jam! I have experience developing annual reports, research reports and other long form documents.

But why Slinky?
I have been known as ‘Slink’ or ‘Slinky’ since I was ten years old. Why? Sarah LINKlater. Yep, that simple!

You bring the coffee, I’ll bring the doughnuts.
