About me

- Experienced Graphic Designer at high level, with 25 years industry experience.

- Extensive knowledge of computer operating systems and software applications,

including Adobe Creative Suite.

- Excellent copywriting, proof-reading and presentation voiceover skills.

- Analysis of design briefs, and implementation of creative solutions with accuracy and consistency through to

completion.

- Generation and implementation of ideas, significant contribution to the

creative output and knowledge of any company.

- Communication of design concepts verbally and visually to clients.

- Developing and maintaining trustworthy and beneficial customer relationships.

- Handling of pressure and meeting deadlines, ensuring projects are completed accurately and on time in fast

moving environments.

- Focus and prioritise information and workload appropriately, performing work with minimum of supervision.

- Accurate and precise approach to project implementation and management.

Positive, friendly attitude, communicating at all levels, providing advisory and motivational qualities.

I have many interests, in many areas; with a particular passion for horticulture. This passion has led to me becoming an award-winning garden designer, with exhibits at BBC Gardeners' World Live (2011) and RHS Hampton court Palace Flower Show (2012 and 2015) combined with extensive press and television coverage.

I have been assigned various photographic projects in the past, notably for Yorkshire Life Magazine; photographing celebrities such as Jose Carreras, Howard Wilkinson, Chris Eubank and....Sooty. I have also photographed live concerts, when required, for 'Terrorizer' magazine, a leading publication in the world of extreme music.

I enjoy socialising and dining out, and I regularly attend live concerts. I have been known to 'enjoy' karaoke;

an 'unfortunate' side effect of this once resulted in an audition for 'Stars in Their Eyes' many years ago.

I consider myself to be an honest, reliable and efficient individual, with a very good sense of humour, and a friendly, positive personality.
