About My services

I am an experienced and established design consultant with expertise in brand identity, printed communications, and screen based media. Clients include professional services sector, finance, automotive, food, education, etc

I am currently working as a free lance designer following a period at a senior level within several top 25 UK design agencies. My experience encompasses project management, art direction and design at the highest level. Examples of such clients range from WorldCom to Lloyds TSB and many smaller clients such as Ignite business systems, Epalan Clinical Consultancy, ESD Environmental, Touchstone Asset Management, CCRE etc.

I look beyond a brief to produce successful marketing communications and rely on my experience to deliver quality results for clients � adding vitality, innovation and a thirst to produce communications that get to the heart of the matter.

My reputation is based on my ability to delight and surprise clients with a wide range of high quality work spanning many sectors and media. My intelligent approach will give your work focus and substance as well as style.

Whether a business is small or large, they are still unique. Special. What matters to them and their customers also matters to me. And the least a client deserves is design that reflects its individuality. There�s nothing quite like a relationship of trust, confident that a client is getting the best advice at the right price. Technical skill is crucial, but its empathy that makes the difference.

I\'m hugely passionate about what I do and with that comes a drive to meet and exceed targets for each and every client I work with.
