About me

I am a graphic designer looking for challenging and interesting work to fuel my passion for design. I have recently moved to the UK from Sydney Australia (I have duel citizenship) in order to gain experience in the competitive UK market.

I was last employed at a small boutique branding/design agency, a role I initially won as part of a scholarship. This part time position began in my 3rd year of university and became a fulltime job when I graduated. The scholarship involved a wide range of projects from print, web, photography, strategy and competitor analysis. However, the majority of projects I worked on were print based including corporate identity, publications, and newsletters etc from concept right through to production. I also worked on the design and construction of a number of websites.

Prior to this job, in my second year at university, I art directed the uni magazine - a glossy cover, approx 30 page document. This experience was exceptionally fulfilling as it required managing a team of approx 20 designers and photographers. This also lead to developing and fine tuning my time management skills, as I juggled the mag with full time uni and a part time job.

I hope that my skills and desire to learn more about design will be sufficient for your needs.

Kind regards,

Laura Tolley
