About me

I'm a multi-skilled and highly creative graphic designer with over 15 years experience in the industry.

In my current role as Graphic Designer at IBM in London, I create highly designed deliverables that represent and explain the complex systems IBM propose to create, develop and provide for a large range of companies.

I work for Client Engagement Designing and producing many different deliverables that represent and explain complex systems which IBM propose to create, develop and provide for its clients. Designing powerful graphics and layouts to represent the proposal and brand for all sectors including banking, healthcare, transport and media:

Board papers

Presentations

Posters

Murals and journey maps

Micro-sites

Prezis

Animations and videos


Through my visual interpretations of the proposals I have helped teams to win billion dollar deals for the company both in the UK and internationally.

Before joining IBM, I worked as a freelance graphic designer producing marketing materials and websites for various companies, including construction businesses and healthcare organisations.

I have advanced skill in all Adobe Creative Suite (CC 2020) packages including Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop and Muse using both Mac and PC. I create artworks that both captivate and inspire the audience. Creating artworks for different walks of life and seeing these designs being combined with the technical functionality to drive sales excites me.

I am a quick and keen learner, who is always looking out for new technologies that can advance the company's thinking and processes. I enjoy keeping up-to-date with the latest design, fonts and typography trends to ensure my designs are competitive and current to the times, while at the same time in keeping with the remit of the brand.

Throughout my career I have worked with companies of all sizes and successfully helped teams solve design challenges we have faced at the time. I have also lead teams throughout design, managing projects from start to finish. With that in mind, I am keen to bring my experience to help you to expand your brand.

I am extremely hardworking, fast and committed individual, who thrives off a fast-paced working environment and ensures deadlines are always met.
