About me

Previously I worked as an Art Director/Studio Manager at
Staffordshire Media working on two of their flagship publications -
Staffordshire Living Magazine and Staffordshire in Business. I have
sole responsibility of the look and content of these magazines.
Staffordshire Media produced design work for advertising, printing and
publishing and I managed the production of all three from designing an
advert to go in the local press to a complete re-brand and marketing
campaign. I am an innovative thinker with a strong passion for what I
do.

Previous to this I worked at Phones 4u as an in-house Graphic
Designer producing all internal and external visual communication.
Previous to this I worked as a Graphic Designer for Collectible World
Studios designing a variety of different literature to help the Sales
and Marketing teams. I also designed POS displays for clients such as
Clintons. In my current role I have frequent contact with clients
discussing their advertising and marketing needs, which has given me
excellent communication skills. I thrive on the prospect of a challenge
and work well under pressure either individually or as a team. I am
used to working to deadlines and normally produce my best work when
under pressure. I have completed a BA honours degree in Graphic Design
of which I obtained a 2:1 at Staffordshire University and I have an
excellent knowledge of QuarkXpress, Adobe In Design, Adobe Photoshop,
and Adobe Illustrator.
