About Me
My work spans digital design, product design, and branding. I bring creativity to high-quality experiences grounded in strong UX principles and research. I work effectively both in teams and independently, leading or delivering end to end as needed. From long-term engagements to focused projects, I adapt quickly and collaborate closely to provide design support that fits.

Real results from real people.
I hired Harley at Tank2create as a graphic designer, immediately recognising his raw design talent and distinctive creative edge. He really stood out from all the candidates! Since then, his growth has been remarkable. Through mentorship and hands on experience in a creative agency, he has evolved into a confident designer with exceptional versatility. He brings creativity and fresh thinking to every project, consistently elevating the work. What sets him apart is his curiosity, professionalism, and drive to keep improving his skillset. Harley has become an invaluable part of the team and a truly outstanding designer. I highly recommend him for not only his amazing design skills but his lovely vibes to be around!
Working with Harley has been incredible, the absolute level of professionalism when it comes to communication and delivery is top notch. From clients who are in the Premiere League to small time business owners, I can't recommend him enough. No job is too small or big, from billboards to graphics across social promotion and activations, this is someone you can rely on. I am looking forward to working with you again in the future!
Working with Harley was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He took the time to really understand our vision, listened carefully to every challenge we raised, and consistently delivered above expectations. His work ethic is second to none, and his attention to detail truly shows in the quality of his designs. Everything he produced was sharp, professional, and on-brand. Harley handled the full scope of our project effortlessly, logo design, pitch deck, business cards, flyers, landing page, and social media banners. The end result was a cohesive and polished brand presence. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-tier creative work.
Who is Harley Swadling?
I’m an extremely driven individual who is constantly pushing to learn, refine and evolve. I don’t believe in standing still. Whether it’s design, business or life, I am always looking for ways to improve and go further.
I’ve built my skillset through real-world experience rather than following a traditional path. By working directly with brands, experimenting and constantly improving, I’ve developed a way of thinking that focuses on what actually works, not just what looks good.
Outside of design, I focus heavily on growth. I spend time training in the gym, researching new ideas, developing business concepts and learning new tools. I enjoy understanding how things work, breaking them down and trying to rebuild them myself.
I am not interested in average. I am focused on building something that lasts.
