Hi, I’m Lilly, the designer and developer behind Patch Foundry.

My journey here started with a degree in Media Arts at UniSA, where I first discovered my passion for design. From there, I explored every corner of the creative and digital space, from film and photography to graphic design and web design and development. Along the way, I've worked with clients of all sizes and industries, gaining a deep understanding of how people experience the online world.

And what I kept seeing was frustration. Businesses being sold “easy-to-use” website platforms that still demanded hours of trial and error. Designers disappearing after launch, leaving clients without guidance. Maintenance plans that promised ongoing care but rarely delivered. Time and energy were being invested into websites that should have been working for clients, but instead were working against them.

That’s why I built Patch Foundry, to change the experience. My approach is personalised and transparent, no jargon, no smoke and mirrors, no disappearing acts. Just honest collaboration, thoughtful design, and websites that keep working long after launch.

Because websites are never really ‘finished,’ I see myself as a long-term partner. Whether you need updates, fresh design direction, or ongoing support, I’m here to make sure your website evolves with you. I also offer training for my clients and their teams, empowering them to feel confident managing their sites. Teaching web design at UniSA keeps me connected to how people learn and interact with digital tools, insights I bring to every project to make websites intuitive, user-friendly, and effective.

When I’m not working on projects, you’ll usually find me on the soccer pitch, wandering through local farmers’ markets, spending time with family and friends or walking my dog.
