About me
A graphic designer who uses a background in STEM, product design, fashion and photography to take a multi-faceted approach to all projects, whether as a team member or as project lead. Proven to be adaptable and quick-thinking in all aspects of the design process, from client relations to software usage.
While having interests and skills in photography, fashion and product design, I opted to pursue a higher education in graphic design, to make the most of my knowledge and strengths in a field that inspires me.
Besides my degree course, I already have over a year's industry experience working in a fast-paced graphic design agency and yet more experience volunteering my time as a freelance across the fields of sport, editorial, heritage, education and entertainment over the last six years.
My previous studies have sharpened my ability to research and analyse user needs and develop my technical skills during prototyping, design collaboration and business strategy. My ability to understand the needs of consumers and colleagues in different departments creates smooth and effective communication from concept to completion. I keep abreast of trend forecasts and marketing strategies to inform my practice while having a genuine love and respect for the heritage of design. Experience with workflow managers such as Monday and Teams has proven helpful, as well as knowledge of all programmes across the Adobe Creative Suite. I work confidently within WordPress and several 3D design softwares including Cinema4D. A full list of my software expertise can be found in my CV.
I am looking to prove myself once again in a new role while continuing to push myself and learn new skills and software. I hope with my experience and enthusiasm, I could become an asset and grow within a new team.
