About me

A highly motivated and creative individual with an eye for detail. Adept at time management, multitasking and effective communication. Confident working under own initiative but equally well suited to working in a team environment and enthusiastic to broaden skills.

I have worked as a freelance illustrator and print designer for creating surface design for textiles, packaging, stationery and ceramics as well as advertising and editorial pieces.

I also have experience working in education and arts administration.

Freelance, permanent or fixed contract positions considered.
