Who we are
KC & the Graphics Bandwagon is a purpose-driven, specialist design studio dedicated to making information accessible, inclusive, and beautifully easy to use. My mission is to take accessibility out of the too-hard basket by creating documents that meet compliance standards and reflect the brand, voice, and values of the organisations I support. I believe accessibility should never come at the expense of good design, and that inclusive communication is better for everyone.
My core values include:
- Inclusion - I create documents that everyone can use, including people with disability and neurodivergent users who use assistive technology.
- Clarity - I prioritise clear communication in everything I design.
- Collaboration - I work closely with my clients and peers, valuing knowledge sharing and long-term partnerships.
- Integrity - I prioritise quality, honesty, and consistently delivering on time and budget.
KC & the Graphics Bandwagon is a one-woman show. I'm an accredited Accessible Document Specialist (IAAP), designer, and consultant with over 30 years of experience in the print and design industry, and over a decade specialising in accessible document design.
I work with not-for-profits, government departments, and purpose-led organisations across Australia to create reports, forms, templates and resources that are compliant, on-brand, and enjoyable to use.

What we do
Core services offered:
Accessible Document Design
I design digital documents from scratch using Adobe InDesign and other tools to meet accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 and PDF/UA), while ensuring brand consistency, visual clarity, and ease of use for all readers. This includes reports, guides, brochures, and other long-form content.
PDF Remediation
I remediate existing PDFs to correct accessibility issues, ensuring content can be read and navigated by people who use screen readers or other assistive tech. This includes applying semantic tagging, correcting reading order, adding alt text, ensuring proper colour contrast, and addressing form field usability, amongst other things.
Mentoring and Accessibility Support
I offer over-the-shoulder support, consulting and mentoring to internal teams who want to embed accessibility into their content creation workflows. Sessions are customised to help build practical skills using real-world examples from the client's documents.
Impact areas:
- Empowering organisations to produce inclusive communications.
- Supporting teams to meet accessibility compliance with confidence.
- Creating content that reaches and respects all users.
- Reducing remediation costs through accessible-first practices.
- Elevating accessibility as a core part of the brand and user experience.
Key outcomes:
- Professionally designed, WCAG-compliant documents that don’t compromise on visual appeal.
- Greater internal capability and confidence in accessibility practices.
- Improved user experience for people with disability and neurodivergent communities.
- Increased organisational alignment with inclusion and access values.
