About me

With over 20 years professional experience in a variety of
creative roles for a global real estate organisation I have a wealth of
real world business experience and have a good understanding of what it
takes to work in a busy deadline driven corporate environment. As well
as being considered the presentation guru for the business I also have
hands-on experience of the design and production of a wide range of
marketing and communications materials, from printed documents to
interactive e-brochures to video DVDs.

I have attended numerous business events nationwide and across
Europe as presentation support and my experiences have taught me that
as well as being prepared to turn your hand to anything the value of
good inter-personal skills and the ability to quickly build
relationships.

The breadth of my experience and depth of software skills affords me
a calm confidence and the flexibility to look at problems with a wider
view. I am used to taking briefs from all levels of staff across the
organisation and I feel that I am able to quickly grasp concepts and
work with my clients to generate creative and effective solutions. I am
well aware of the dynamic nature of business and how quickly
requirements can change and my colleagues recognised me as someone who
was always keen to help with the minimum of fuss and a level of humour
to help take the stress out of a situation.

I hold an HND in Applied Photography and an MSc in Interactive
Multimedia and have a deep understanding of the creative process as
well as good software knowledge. I maintain a passion for design in its
widest sense and try to keep abreast of latest trends and
techniques.

My experience working as part of a global team on projects such as
corporate website refresh and company brand style guidelines led to a
deep understanding of the wider business and how marketing materials
aligns to business objectives.
