About me

I have spent the last 3 years working as a freelance illustrator, producing designs for clients such as 'Create and Craft' and 'Aceville Publishing' using Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign.

Having to liaise with a Senior Web Designer and an Editor, I feel I have built up industry experience and gained more professionalism regarding my career path. I not only have to attend meetings and briefings, I have a lot of input regarding themes, colours, final layouts and styles.
I feel have been entrusted with a big responsibility to cover 6 pages throughout the 'Create and Craft' magazine, and did not take this lightly. I do not shy away from strict and tight deadlines as I have to produce a lot of illustrations in a very short space of time.

During my degree I have become a proficient user of 'Photoshop', 'Illustrator', 'Indesign' and have been introduced to 'Quark' 'Flash' and 'Director'. I have more than proven my ability to quickly learn new programmes if needed.

I am currently also working in graphics at a television studio and looking to move on and utilize my skills obtained from the last 4 years.
Having had previous work experience in a design studio and directly with an established artist, I believe this will be advantageous to the skills i can offer. I am very passionate about the greetings card industry and only hope that I can be given the opportunity to further this.

I have absolutely loved producing designs for greetings cards and craft projects and would hope I could create an entire range one day.
