Career profile

I have also developed a keen understanding of how best to layout a page, taking what seems to be a complex

My graphic design career began by working for corporate identity consultants Henrion, Ludlow & Schmidt where I progressed from junior designer to middle weight designer. While at HLS I worked on a number of different design projects. These included annual report and accounts for Amersham International.

Other projects while at HLS included ticket design, branding guidelines for London Underground and Emergency Exit signing for UK Main Line stations underground.

Following David Lock Design I moved to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew where I designed seasonal and special events m
