About me

After my degree I took a job as a High School IT technician. On top of my technical duties I created a school intranet page, a virtual tour, and created several graphics and logos for the school. These were undertaken as personal projects, as opposed to tasks requested of me.

In addition to this, I have been doing a moderate amount of freelance design and graphic work for friends and small companies. I've designed characters, mascots, comics, graphics and websites. I would like to focus much more on this career path, which is why I'm now looking for jobs in this field.

I have my own Cintiq graphics tablet, and my own copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2, my skill level on both is Intermediate to Advanced, and the oppurtunity to take these skills further would be much appreciated. I also have working experience of Flash, Illustrator and 3d Studio Max.

I am self taught in all these applications and feel that I can quickly acquire more skills in additional programs if required.

I'm enthusiastic, friendly and get on well as part of a team. I have some experience leading groups, having been a youth leader, and a karate sempai (assistant instructor) both times in groups of between 10 and 30 people.
