About me

I achieved a 1st class BA Honours degree in Communication Design at the University of Portsmouth in 2009.

Proudest Moments - When my work appeared on the big screens in Piccadilly Circus, London & my work being nominated for IPA & Drum awards

Favourite Quote: "People ignore design that ignores people." - Frank Chimero

I have nine years experience & I am currently working as freelance designer. I am an expert in Adobe Creative Suite, I have had experience with & understand HTML, CSS & JS. I also have experience using wireframing software such a Sketch, InVision & I am comfortable using CMS systems such as WordPress.

Random Fact - My name is an anagram of 'I am freelance'

I have always been intrigued with how people interact with design & how design interacts with people. From a small child drawing & assembling a paper cube to a teenager fascinated by Tibor Kalman's controversial works. UX Design has a major impact on our daily lives & decisions, design so good, many people do not notice its influence.

For me to be able to be the think tank behind great UX design is amazing. I am passionate about conceptual design, theory, semiotics, & ideologies. I enjoy researching all things new & old. I love testing & trying new things; I thrive on a good challenge, keeping busy & solving problems - anything to keep on my toes.

I want to communicate in as many ways as possible, interacting with the rest of the world through design. Inspiring minds, encouraging curiosity & intrigue. But most of all I want to be surrounded by similar minds, constantly looking for ways to push boundaries, concepts & ideas.
