With thorough research and fastidious attention too detail I aim for personal and client satisfaction in the end result.

    With experience of both in-house and agency environments, I am familiar with various aspects of design and production. I have been responsible for projects from concept to print and have the ability to build and maintain excellent client and supplier rapport.

    The clients I have worked with as a graphic designer or art director are from both the public and private sectors, including education, museums, corporate, property, recycling and the leisure industry. My portfolio includes examples from across design disciplines including exhibition design, print, packaging and web.

    I have an open-minded and flexible attitude to my work, thrive on being involved in different projects, and happy to turn my hand to whatever it takes to get the job done.

    In my spare time you'll probably find me either reading, eating, buying reading material or buying food to cook. This year I intend to pursue my print making further and travel around the country more.
