I started my career as a marketing executive within financial services. Whilst there, the company I worked for was acquired and then merged. Being part of the rebranding team, I learnt a lot about the power of design, brand identity and their ability to influence. Hard as it was, I decided to leave my job to develop my knowledge and understanding in the principles of design and graduated from Shillington College in 2015.
Since that time I have been lucky enough to establish myself as a designer working for some well known (AgFunder, British Heart Foundation, Deutsche Bank, ARUP) and less well known (Strippd, Assay Studios, Figure Fit, Jo Swallow Sleep Practitioner) brands. I consider myself to be thoughtful, process oriented and concept driven. My experience lies in print and digital, where possible I like to illustrate and I am currently learning After Effects.
