About me
I am a qualified and experienced Illustrator and Creative Designer who graduated from Leeds Arts University with a Ba(Hons) in Textile Design. I am an open minded creative and able to work to a brief with professionalism and flair. I have an eye for colour and composition and feel that I am innovative in the way I work. In my personal practise I approach deep contemporary issues including grief, mental health and loneliness - I enjoy using social media platforms to educate in a relatable manner and prompt others to be more curious about themselves.
Since leaving university I started up my own business and have experimented with where I fit into the creative industry. I started out by creating prints for Activewear during COVID and created my own collection my style has since then developed into Illustration where I have been creating Narrative Prints and Illustrating children's books which I wrote myself. This can all be seen on my website or instagram
I also created a go to market strategy through social media incorporating LinkedIn, Youtube, Instagram and Facebook.
I represented England in Long Jump and Triple Jump and continued to compete and push myself the highest level and have adopted the same attitude in everything I have committed too including more recently taking up Yoga and became a 200hr qualified Yoga Teacher in 2018.
I am target driven and a strong relationship builder who is able to quickly break down barriers, gain trust to become a valued team member who is inclusive and thrives working in a creative diverse environment.
