About me

Hi, I'm Jake, a graphic designer​​​ based in Wolverhampton.

Since a very young age I have always had a passion for illustration and design. As the years passed I found my real calling at secondary school with a course in graphic design. Here was something which utilised my creative skills and enabled me to work with a variety of media, as well as enabling me to combine my other skills such as Photography, Videography and Illustration.

I have continued to develop my interests in design through offering a freelance service designing for independent bands and musicians across the globe. I facilitate this through my own design website/portfolio in addition to this I have developed a small clothing brand which I merchandise online.

In terms of relevant work experience I have spent considerable time as a designer at Studio 14 digital marketing and design a young freelance agency based in Birmingham. I have also worked as a part of the in house graphic design team at The West Midland Safari Park. Staff were impressed with my work and I have completed freelance projects for them.
