About me
As an experienced, multidisciplinary graphic designer with proven ability and over ten years of experience in the design and e-commerce industry, I can produce focused and detail-oriented print and digital work to strict deadlines. I can take on and develop an idea/concept and produce striking visual executions for clients. With my ability to think creatively outside the box and come up with exceptional design solutions I would be a great asset to any team - I love to work collaboratively, learning from others, or pushing myself in new and exciting ways by working individually.
I have a comprehensive knowledge of Adobe suite, QuarkXPress, Magento and specialise in corporate identity and branding, digital and print design as well as photography and post-processing imagery. Online merchandising and site search optimisation, in the past through SLI Systems(R) and ATTRAQT(TM), then through an integrated Magento visual merchandiser plug-in, was an integral part of past roles; to enhance customer browsing satisfaction and product visibility - helping drive sales and increase revenue/profit.
My role as a designer has allowed me to comprehensively develop my skills in a range of areas; web support and development, catalogue and corporate brochure design, leaflet and magazine advert design, email campaign design and distribution, marketing, excellent B2B/B2C management skills and a great eye for detail. Exceptional knowledge in managing mail order catalogue projects; from the initial concept stage to layout and design, photography and image post-processing, print production and mail sorting. Working to strict brand guidelines, producing high-quality print-ready artwork. Managing a team of graphic designers, ensuring the workflow is distributed evenly amongst team members and that all collateral produced is signed off and of a high standard.
I strive for the highest level of quality in my work and clients, new and existing, will be impressed with my exceptional attention to detail, versatility, work ethic and friendly demeanour.
