About me
Dear Sir/Madam
I am a graduate of BA (Hons) in Visual Communication & Design. I completed my studies from Birmingham City University (BIAD) and would like to make the best use of the skills developed during my university study and my previous work experience.
I am my current working as a Senior Designer in Enovision which is a Digital Design company based in birmingham. I have previously worked on projects for some of the major multinational companies for example Levis, City FM, Dish network, Fedrigoni, Thortons and local UK charities such as St.Basils & NSPCC. I have also followed up on briefs from various design competitions over my study tenure in the university. In all of these projects, I was able to apply the knowledge i had gained from my studies and freelance work experience in a work situation. I have been responsible for layout, pre-press, designing and preparation of print and digital artwork working closely with the senior art directors as support, production staff and printers. I also briefly ran my own textile business consisting of advertising with the help of screen and silk printing on various textile textures and surfaces.
Over the past four years, I have become highly proficient in Adobe CS Suite on both Mac OSX and Windows XP. I am able to work under pressure to tight deadlines and ensure the work is produced at the highest level - and while juggling full-time study. In particular, I have extensive experience in branding, product design, advertisements and designing all other sorts of promotional materials
I have excellent ability to communicate with managers and colleagues which my referees can confirm. As such, I believe I can make a significant contribution to your creative team.
My resume is attached and can email you some of examples of my work. I am readily available for an interview. Looking forward to hear from you.
Yours sincerely
Danish Saeed
