About me

"I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious."

Albert Einstein

My design style is a combination of Vectors and Illustrations used to create a crisp, clean and overall quality finish. I believe myself to be a very accomplished drawer particularly within the use of professional marker pens.

I am creative, precise and have a keen eye for colour and a passion for minimalist design. Working at Starbucks Coffee Co. has taught me a lot about working as a team under immense pressure and at high speeds whilst retaining quality of product and a positive mental attitude. It has also taught me a lot about great customer service and how to form quick relationships with people.

I am very experienced within both Windows and Mac systems. I have an extremely keen interest in computers and technology and frequently build my own machines, all of which I learnt to do myself. I also am teaching myself how to use Three Dimensional design software such as Autodesk 3DS Max and can create detailed, high poly Models learnt purely from tutorials and just experimenting with the software in my own free time.

I have also taught myself how to play guitar from an early age and have now been playing for seven years.

I am friendly, trustworthy and a very reliable individual who is keen to learn valuable skills and work ethics. I am confident and enthusiastic and I am capable of communicating politely and effectively. I have excellent time keeping and organisation skills which I have developed

over the 3 years of my University course with it consisting only of course work where time management plays a vital role in the completion of the modules. I also have an excellent sickness record, am clean and well presented at all times, am very sensible and have a very good common sense. I am a very quick learner and can follow a set of instructions and I

believe I would be a valuable asset to your team.
