About me

Hello,

My name is Grace Neal, graduating BA (Hons) Graphic Design at the University of Cumbria (formerly known as Cumbria Institute of the Arts). I am applying to this vacancy as I have previously worked as an intern for 3 months as an in-house designer and enjoy the benefits of really becoming integrated within a company and thus producing better work for them, unlike an outside agency.

I am excited about this job opportunity as it involves working with a charity, and am passionate about giving my best to a worthwhile cause. I am always looking for new approaches to format and design, and am proactive, starting my own web design business whilst studying.

Yours sincerely,

Grace Neal
