About me

I am a designer working in the advertising and marketing sector, and have spent the last three years in media agencies. I have worked with clients ranging from start-ups to established brands, including client-facing responsibilities and contribution to new business pitch work. I have worked both in-house and freelance on a range of campaigns and digital projects including charities, small businesses, events, startups, healthcare communications, government PR, e-commerce and events marketing.

I work from concept to delivery with experience producing advertising creative across ad delivery networks, infographics, social media assets and cross-media marketing material. My experience includes creating ad suites (HTML5), SEO, CRO, landing page and UX / UI design, producing new business pitches, and contributing to multi-channel campaigns that tell brand stories online.

I have advanced skills across Adobe Creative Cloud, in particular Illustrator, Photoshop, XD, After Effects and InDesign.

I have an MA in Cultural and Critical Theory which continues to inspire my creative thinking, and I occasionally blog about the role of digital media in social relations and consumer culture. I research the latest trends across digital engagement and visual language, plus continually explore the possibilities of visual communication and user behaviours in response to digital environments.
