About me

I graduated last June with a first class honours in graphic communication from Bath Spa University, and have since been interning consistently at a range of brands and consultancies in London and Brighton for the last year.

I am currently on a three month contract at Microsoft software company Cezanne Ltd, which can be made a permanent position in September, but I am seeking a role which more suits my fashion and luxury based experience, and where I have more interest in the subject matter - hence my application.

At my last internship at successful licensing consultants Skew Studio, I assisted with projects for brands such as the BBC, MTV and Nickelodeon, producing print and pattern work, editorial, product application / packaging design, market research, logo design and any in-house publications or online material such as online games. As well as having the opportunity to work with such high profile brands, I have been able to further my understanding and practice of the Adobe Suite, especially Photoshop and Illustrator.

I have a great interest in the fashion industry, and have interned at both high profile fashion brands and fashion editorials. I spend three months at luxury lingerie designer Nichole de Carle, where I was solely responsible for creating her website, 2011 look books, stationary, range plan and created material in-store for Selfridges and online at Net-a-Porter. I was also responsible for photography selection and some levels of retouching. I worked alongside the Marketing and Branding teams, and worked closely with a web programmer throughout my time there. I enjoyed the responsibility I was given there, and working as a team to further the success of the brand.

I also spent some time at high street brand Coast, where I worked with the e-commerce team on updating and maintaining the website and e-shop, producing digital newsletters, assisting on their bridal collection launch and styling garment and photo shoots for the web. This was a rewarding experience, as it helped to develop my html and web skills, as well as giving my an insight into the importance of the online presence and online marketing for a high street brand.

I produced editorial spreads for Schon! fashion and photography magazine, both online and in-store at Selfridges and other high profile stores, and assisted with content research and photography selection.

In my spare time I freelance, designing websites and providing help with social networking for local businesses.

I consider myself an honest, considerate person and dedicated designer, who is looking to further my experience within the industry, and progress in my career.
