About me
Key competencies
I have over 20 years design experience working in busy studio environments and in my last position, at Positive Image, I managed the studio output working with a team of three designers and web developers. During my career I have gained advanced knowledge of the relevant design packages including Adobe CS (5). My position was very client focussed and I was often required to liaise directly with senior directors and managers. I often liaised directly with the Marketing Director at Vodafone to ensure projects were delivered to spec. The environment was faced paced and often required projects to be delivered to the highest standard within very tight deadlines whilst adhering to strict corporate guidelines.

Projects range from creating a wide range of digital output (websites, banners etc)tp print adverts for various publications to PowerPoint presentations for global product launches which would also include associated materials such as invitations, signage and full stage visualisations and graphics.
