About Missy
Missy Dempsey is a multi-disciplinary creative based in sunny Sydney. With a focus on spreading joy and optimism, Missy’s cheerful work spans across graphic design, illustration and animation.
She specialises in graphic design for social impact, creating approachable and informative campaigns and branding. Her clients include ACON, NSW Health, UNSW, NAVA, LGBTIQ+ Health and Greenpeace. She also teaches graphic design two nights a week at Shillington College where she enjoys mentoring and encouraging the next generation of designers.
In her spare time she dreams up fantastical 3D printed sculptures for a side-hustle called Wow Mountain she founded with her partner, Josh.
"Having worked with Missy on several TV shows, I can say that she is a fantastic designer. She has a great sense of style and is able to take your half thought through concepts and turn them into fabulous visuals and layouts that are much better than you had the right to hope for. She is a good communicator, and by that I mean that she understands when you try to explain things to her, and she is in turn good at explaining things to you too. "
