Personal Profile

Since graduating from the University of Northumbria, I have gained over 15 years experience in all aspects of graphic design. I have worked with a variety of clients ranging from small start-ups to large FMCGs, directing projects of all scales, from a simple business card to complete re-designs of renowned brands.

As a team player who is able to communicate at all levels, I relish a challenge. My passion is ideas-led design. I believe a creative solution will only be effective if its origins lie in a well researched, inspirational idea on paper. Throughout my career, I have applied this belief to shape creative output. An energetic hands-on approach allows me to nurture and encourage both designers and design teams to push creative boundaries and consistently deliver exceptional and innovative work with best possible return on investment.
