About me
Dear Sir/Madam,
After six years of exclusive study of graphic design, I graduated from Anglia Ruskin last year with an MA in Graphic Design and Typography with merit, which I achieved while working three days a week for Costello Medical Consulting Ltd. As their first in-house graphic designer, I was responsible for the development of their graphic identity and style guide, establishing their design team and its integration within the company, while personally producing a broad and varied range of graphic products for major players within the pharma industry, including items for many international congresses and seminars.
This project based approach appeals to me as it offers an opportunity to be given responsibility for the complete end-to-end progression.
My university and work experiences have ensured I:
Relish working on multiple varied projects
Understand the importance of careful planning and time management to meet demanding deadlines
Am a good team member
Am able to collaborate successfully
Understand practical constraints, such as production and budgeting limitations
Feel confident with customers and understand how to satisfy their real needs
Am happy to take full responsibility for all aspects of a project
Have an in-depth understanding of the software and design process,
Have a passion for typography and detail precision
Aim for the best results I can achieve
Have the perseverance needed to succeed
Have a good sense of humour
I am looking for a full time position to further my career within a more creative sector of the design industry, preferably:
With a small studio or design agency that provides a wide variety of design challenges.
In a position where I can develop further skills with a more digital and web focus
Where I believe I can utilise my qualifications, experience and understanding of the design process to deliver a better result.
You can view my portfolio online at Exarkdesigns as well as more information about myself.
Regards,
Theo Smith
