About me

Hello,

HOW I WILL BE AN ASSET TO YOUR COMPANY

I am a very driven designer, if I need to work extra hours to make sure that the work is done to the standard that is set, that is not a problem for me.

Concepts. When it comes to having a concept for a design I can bring multiple, varied suggestions to the table. I also work well with fellow designers on expanding the concepts even further.

As well as being focused on Graphic Design as a whole, I can also help with, motion graphics, animation and video editing. From the age of 13, I taught myself how to use After Effects, Premier and Photoshop.

Attention to detail. Personally, I really appreciate a close eye when it comes to detail. So when it comes to my work I put in that extra bit of work to make sure everything is clean and professional looking.

Very reliable. Working to a deadline is something I really do enjoy and is also something that I can really be trusted on. I am also always on time and ready to do work.

Always willing to give a helping hand. I really enjoy the feeling of knowing that I have helped someone. If I am able to help someone, I will. Whether that be with a project they are working on or software.

A BRIEF SECTION ABOUT ME

As of right now, I am managing to support myself by my freelance work but I'm am looking for an opportunity to take my career to the next level. I have just finished my third year at college course studying Graphic Design - this has resulted in me having an HND for Graphic Design. As well as doing the briefs given to me by the college I took it upon myself to try and get my foot in the door by starting my own personal freelance work. The work I focus on for my freelance is Competitive Gaming Branding. When I don't have a client I still create. I tend to create Mascot Logos purely for two reasons, it is always a fun challenge to be illustrative and also to also keep the work to a simplistic tone so it can be recognised at a smaller scale. I do really enjoy working with other pieces of work rather than logos. This is good for my portfolio and is also good for future clients, just so they can get a preview of my work. some of this work can be viewed on my Béhance which I shall provide a link for.

I do have a physical portfolio - but this is primarily full of my college work. The portfolio that was given to me was of an A2 size. Although, I am very grateful for the portfolio it is not as easy to carry around as I would like so to make it more convenient and easier to carry around I have designed myself a portfolio booklet. This showcases my freelance work, my college work (the pieces I feel may be the strongest) and have a more pleasing version of my CV.
