About me

I'm a graphic designer with a varied style that blends clean, thoughtful layouts with a love for illustration and hands-on creativity. I'm passionate about using design to solve problems - taking something complex and turning it into something clear, beautiful, and easy to understand.

I currently work in the marketing department at Trent College, an independent school, where I focus on bringing the brand to life across both print and digital. Before that, I was the in-house designer at Presentation Design Services, where I helped redesign their website and worked across a range of visual projects.

In the past, I also ran my own business, Fawn Creative, where I designed wedding stationery, greetings cards, and handmade macramé wall hangings. I really enjoyed the freedom and creativity of that time and would love to take on more freelance projects from my home studio.

Inspiration comes from everywhere - good design in any form, whether that's fashion, interiors, architecture, or galleries. While typography isn't my strongest suit, I have a real appreciation for layout, structure, and clarity in visual communication.

Clients would describe me as calm, focused, and easy to work with. I'm someone who likes to get stuck in, stay open to feedback, and always aim to create work that aligns with the client's vision. I'm currently available for freelance work and excited to connect with other creatives and clients looking for a thoughtful, practical approach to design.
