Katie Garside

After completing a Bachelor of Creative Industries with majors in Journalism and Graphic Design, Katie moved to Sydney to pursue her dream of working in magazines. She has since worked across multiple weekly brands, including NW, OK!, Take 5, and is currently the Art Director of New Idea. With over 9 years’ experience as a multidisciplinary graphic designer, Katie oversees the design across print, digital, social, newsletters and video content. She has been nominated twice as a company Values Ambassador in recognition of her leadership, proactive approach, and commitment to championing high-quality design. As a designer, her goal is to create clear, engaging visual storytelling that helps readers connect with every story. She has her finger on the pulse of all celebrity news as it drops, and when she’s not creating beautiful imagery, you can find her out with friends, at the beach, or curled up with her cat and a good book.
