About me

Hello

From my attached CV, it can be seen that I am able to adapt my skills and abilities to various different environments. In addition, I feel my experience along with my knowledge of New Media Technologies, I am able to provide a insight into the workings and functions of this Industry. I also feel that from my previous and current employment positions, and through my studies, I have learnt to communicate with people on a high level, and by working within an educational environment I have being able to provide positive influence and encouragement to learners.

As a Senior Designer for Magical Media Limited, I ensure that I am able to possess the ability to provide a consistency of producing high quality and creative digital productions. My duties range from providing simple and complex graphic design solutions, such as full corporate branding identity creation and management, to web design and development, which included designing, implementing and maintaining HTML5 websites (demonstrating comprehensive HTML and CSS scripting skills, along with basic understanding of PHP and Java) to Social Media Management. Through several years of experience of working within the industry, I have became highly proficient in being able to use creative softwares such as the Adobe Creative Suite - Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Flash, Dreamweaver - and the Final Cut Studio for Apple Mac's.

Whilst working as a Senior Designer, aside from the creative element of my position, I am also involved in interacting with clients on several levels from gaining and assessing criteria and requirements. From communicating with several clients at the same time I have learnt to manage client accounts, and as a result learnt to prioritise certain clients and the works they have requested, by determining their deadlines and importance.

I am now looking towards to advancing my experiences and skills within a wider range of companies and industry. Due to my level of experience with managing external clients projects and their requirements, I feel that my skills and abilities would be best suited to Contract based positions, where I can showcase my creativity, thought processes and design skills both as an individual and as part of a team.

I feel my greatest personal development, has been in developing and establishing a Brand of my own within the design industry as a service provider for print and online media. I have since managed to gain experience working for a variety of personal clients and corporate companies, to allow me to develop my skills, my creativity and my understanding of various markets, most importantly the design industry. My portfolio showcases a variety of set skills, and also shows the depth of clients I currently manage, from clients in the Asian wedding industry through to NHS Private Surgeons. I look forward to advancing my skills and experiences personally, whilst continuing to further establish my within the industry.

Thank You.
