About me

Dear Sir/Madam

I have just graduated with a 2:1 in Fine Art from Bucks New University, and I am looking to begin a career in the Design Industry. While studying I taught myself how to use Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and how to animate in Flash, as well as creating my Portfolio in InDesign. I am familiar with MS Office having used it throughout University, as well as when I worked in the office of a Global Engineering Design Consultancy for two years prior to my studies.

While at University I created a lot of digital artwork for print. I created large posters, as well as an edition of 500 'dollars' of my own design. I liaised with professional printers to create the work used in my degree show.

I will be very happy to support the Designer on elements of larger projects. While working in an office for two years it was my job to support Senior Engineers with their Design projects. I made sure my work was accurate and delivered on time, and I was constantly updating members of my own team, as well as members of different departments on how the work was progressing. Each member of my team was given a company award for "exceptional accomplishment in transferring knowledge within the organisation".

Also while working in an office I was required to adhere to rules regarding branding and company policy, so I will have no problem adhering to the Guide Dogs brand guidelines.

I am very excited at the opportunity to provide internal and external departments, as well as agencies and general suppliers with artwork, logos and images.

I created a lot of digital media at University, including images and animations, and so I will be happy updating and maintaining the Guide Dogs digital media library. I have just completed an evening class in Basic Web Design at Amersham and Wycombe College.

Thank you.

Yours faithfully
