About me
I graduated from The Liverpool School of Art with a First-Class Degree (w/Hons) in Graphic Arts and since I've been published in the industry-leading YCN and D&AD Annuals and featured nationally (The Royal College of Art, Tate Liverpool) and internationally alongside the likes of Jonathan Barnbrook, Vince Frost, Alexander Gelman and The Designers Republic. I was chosen as 1 of 5 Graphic Designers for the 'Curator's Choice' in the Noise Festival and short-listed for The Alternative Turner Prize. I've freelanced throughout London and worked at the award-winning Base NYC, building up an evolving portfolio demonstrating ability in graphic design, publishing, art direction and typography. During the Autumn and Winter months of 2009 I co-produced a series of intimate exhibitions at my studio, under the name 3rd Floor Apartment.
Between October 2010 and March 2012 I was a Senior/Top Level Creative at Topshop designing various advertising collateral and other promotional material. From March through May 2012, I worked at 'mega agency' AR New York (*), assisting on projects including the accounts for H. Stern, WIlson Brand X and Jimmy Choo founder Tamara Mellon. I now freelance at AR, working under Executive Creative Director David Israel.
