About me

I'm a freelance graphic designer and the founder of Thirty Fathoms, a small design studio by the sea in Cornwall. I've got over 15 years of experience in the industry working with all sorts of people and brands, from leading agencies, to ambitious start-ups, to household names like Cath Kidston and Rick Stein.
My career began in the hustle and bustle of London but I made the move to Cornwall in 2013, where the beautiful coastline continues to inspire me and gives me the space to produce my best creative work.
Design is my true passion - and my experience has given me a deep understanding of the impact that well-crafted design can have. I can bring this passion and experience to your business and help you build a distinctive brand that's true to you, create packaging that stands out on the shelves or design meaningful marketing materials that you'll be truly proud to put out into the world.
If you're looking for a designer to work with - let's have a chat! I'd love to be a part of your brand's journey.
