About me

I am a graphic designer now looking for a new role.

As a designer I have experience designing digital catalogues & magazines, print catalogues and magazines, banners, logos, direct mail, leaflets, store graphics, press releases, advertisements, packaging and web advertising. Following the process from initial concepts through to repro ready artwork or Flash ready documents. I also have experience working on a pitch team.

I am currently freelancing at IPC Media in their creative department working on advertorials. I'm working on 22 titles for a wide variety of clients, from Specsavers to Kelly's ice cream, every advertorial conforming to an individual set of style guidelines. I am also working with the pitch team designing spreads for the sales team to pitch to clients to win accounts.

I have been art directing various different photoshoots also including beauty, food, and those involving real people as opposed to models. This involved attending briefing meetings, mocking up pages with initial concepts, casting models and picking make up artists, hair stylists and photographers.

I enjoy working as part of a team but am also keen to take the initiative. I am confident in Adobe Indesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator, all version CS4, also Quark. I have also completed a course in web design and learnt the basics of Dreamweaver.

I have worked very closely with the client on past projects so I have strong communication skills, a good eye for detail and the ability to meet ever-changing deadlines.
