About me

I have worked in the busy production departments of magazines and newspapers for several years now. I am a creative with visualising, designing, artworking, re-touching, typographic and web skills. Most of my work involves creating, editing and setting adverts and page layouts of all sizes to tight deadlines. I have also art directed and overseen many projects, commissioning photograhers and other designers, often in my freelance work for clients including PwC, Visa and Herald Tribune. I have also used and catalogued image libraries. In addition to working on ads and layouts at the same time I am used to juggling the artworking, editing and setting up of over 40 plus pages of property for print weekly at the magazines and papers. I am familiar with re-touching and creating high res graphics from poorly supplied photos, logos and using graphics from PDFs sent in at the wrong size or spec and recreating artwork from them, for example tracing vectors in Illustrator. I have all the required design package knowledge. I work well under pressure. I am comfortable being left to my own devices or work equally well alongside a team of designers or head of production. Colleagues often remark i'm a friendly, easy going person.
