About me
I am a senior graphic designer at ifour design agency, with over 9 years experience working across a wide range of both print and online projects.
I like to do a good job, turning my hand to anything that gets thrown at me! Whether it be fun, conceptual branding and identities for start-ups, designing clean corporate websites and brochures for larger clients, creating large scale exhibition graphics, or storyboarding concepts for crowdfunding videos.
I love creative problem solving, but I never lose focus of the brief and the client's objectives. My analytical skills coupled with strong creative, typography and layout skills, enable me to produce design solutions that meet the client's needs.
In my current role, I have been the main point of contact for some ongoing clients, maintaining good relationships and making sure projects are completed to a high standard and to deadline. I enjoy working with others within a team, and am able to oversee and direct more junior members of staff
