About me

I am a qualified graphic designer freelancing having set up Utopia Graphics a design company based in Hertfordshire, but looking to find employment.

I'm based in Hertfordshire but I'm looking for work in London or the Home Counties ideally, but would consider further afield.

I've recently been working on new identity for a cricket academy (including website and new logo design). I've also been working on a logo design for a wedding photographer.
