About me

Hello!

I'm a creative living in Manchester who would love any graphic design opportunities available.

I have two years experience in various positions/internships involving graphic design and am currently working as a Marketing Executive (1 month notice period)and launching my own graphic design company called ShootfortheMoon Ltd (soon to be fully up and running at *)

I'm told I have a natural flair for design and taught myself Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and Fireworks CS3/CS5. I've also experimented in Dreamweaver CS5 and done some freelance Flash website design/building for two small companies utilizing Wix. I do have basic HTML skills but my web developer at ShootfortheMoon builds any website/online designs that I create.

More information and examples of my work can be found on my portfolio website: *
