I’m Heath. I’m new in town. I’m a writer, editor, design researcher, and community builder. I’ve spent the past fifteen years advocating for design students and graduates. I co-founded the Adelaide branch of The Design Kids with TDK founder Frankie Ratford. I wrote and edited for the AGDA national office for four years. I worked on projects with academics I could barely keep up with. I’ve interviewed and written articles on north of 150 designers and artists from around the globe — a couple of standouts in terms of intimidation factor: Ian Anderson and Jonathan Ellery. My career highlight to-date was editing an entire speculative design novel with Tony Fry (2021-2022). I even put myself through the trauma of a research degree. Twice.
This site acts as an addendum to my resume. If anything seems interesting, let’s talk. I’ll hit Melbourne on 8 May 2026.
