About me
I'm a Creative living in London looking for jobs in the creative industry to satisfy my need to learn more. I am also a doodler, pumpkin carver and freelance designer. I have spent the past few years at Falmouth University studying Creative Advertising where I enjoyed it so much that I ended up wanting to continue it into afterwards.
