Education
(BA Hons) Advertising and Graphic DesignUniversity of The Arts London (UAL)
- London, United Kingdom
This degree provided me with a great insight into working on campaigns which focused on environmental, political, social and cultural agendas, examining and questioning the ethics of design for advertising on both a global and local level whilst engaging the designer's sense of social responsibility. Emphasis was placed on understanding the role of the audience and developing strategies that interact with and empower them, which has informed the approach and work I currently do and hope to do in the future.
