About me

I would describe myself as passionate, motivated, artistic and above all creative. I have a passion for art and design and are one of the few people who are able to do what they love, every day as a career.

After gaining my degree, I secured a junior design role at one of the UK's largest POS/signage suppliers. This role gave me a solid foundation in the industry. I worked my way up to Design Manager throughout my 8 years at Omega Signs. This role was fundamental in developing my skills and knowledge of both the manufacturing process and customer service. I also gained valuable managerial experience, ultimately having line management responsibility for a design team of six.

The development of this skill set gave me the confidence to open my own design agency. Throughout my freelance career, I secured a number of high profile clients both in the UK and internationally including Bacardi, St Ivel and the Force India Formula One Team. The experience of working with such clients, as a freelancer, provided me with excellent sales, marketing, client focused and customer service skills. I am at my best in a dynamic, fast paced and client centered environment and thrive on a difficult challenge.

I am a strong team player with the ability to self-manage. My experience enables me to react quickly to change, competing deadlines and priorities whilst maintaining a calm and focused attitude. I consider myself to be a straight talking, committed individual with a desire and passion for success.
