About me

Originally from Hamburg, I've lived and worked in London for over five years and have never looked back! I'm currently a graphic designer at CST The Gate working across a range of blue chip brands including Aviva, RBS and Brita. I have been working across a wide range of print advertising, printed literature/direct mail and online communications. The latter includes working with Information Architects to develop effective website designs as well as bringing ideas to life within digital communications across all channels.

Before working at CST The Gate I worked for IC Design, a boutique branding agency working on brands such as Fortnum and Mason and Zoffany Luxury Interior Design. Working across branding, printed literature and online which includes brochures and development as well as development of brand guidelines and their application. I enjoy getting involved at all stages of a project, from idea development and design through to working with printers and developers, retouching and getting the final pieces ready for print.

I love working as part of a team and, as you would expect from a German, I am VERY efficient :)
