About me

The fox.

A resourceful problem solver with an agile mind. His world is a playground of infinite possibilities.

I love a good grid, illustrating, em-dashes, people watching, travel and fried chicken, well, because it's fried chicken. I work across various project types, such as —but not limited to— advertising, editorial, branding and illustration. After several years in the industry working for two major OOH advertisers, one of the leading communications technology providers and a cutting edge online financial trading platform I moved on to teaching full time for Shillington College in London.

Teaching has allowed me to share my experience and send the lift back down for future generations. I switched to part-time teaching a year on to focus on my own work and have been teaching part-time for over two years.

In my first year as a freelancer, I landed projects for clients including Pan Macmillan, RADA and BP (in conjunction with one of my consultancy clients, QuayFive) as well as several start-up companies. In my spare time, I do a lot of self initiated work. This is where I get to play, trying out both new and old techniques. Pushing myself creatively to work with new mediums and even bigger ideas.
