About me

I am an MA Design and Art Direction graduate from Manchester Metropolitan University and I also have a BA (hons) 2:1 Degree in the same subject.

My interests draw on aspects of all three areas of graphic design, branding and advertising and I am a very strong ideas generator and I aspire to become a creative director in a well established design team.

I have strong skills in adobe photoshop, illustrator and Indesign, as well as strong general ICT skills.

I possess strong creative flair and a drive to deliver strong and successful creative solutions.

I have excellent interpersonal skills and work well both individually and as part of a team and generally portrayed as a valuable member of a team.

I have 5 years experience of working on creative briefs for the commercial sector and the third sector. I have a wide range of interests including fashion, sport, film, socialising and travel which all create flair, diversity and originality in my design work.
