I have recently graduated from Nottingham Trent University with an MA in Illustration, I also have a BA Hons in Graphic Design. I am looking for work within the design and illustration industry. Ideally I am looking for freelance or full time work, I'm also interested in collaborations or contributions as well.
Projects
- A Group of NotesFor my MA illustration project I focused on music and mental health, creating a space called A Group of Notes. The project consists of a zine and an online platform encouraging people to express, feel or work through their emotions using music and creativity. The zine is full of lyric illustrations which can be torn out and kept. The online community is for people to share their creations, experiences and new music. Throughout the project I used a lot of hand drawing and traditional printing met
- Waste Studio Live BriefThis was a live brief I completed on my BA Graphic Design course. The brief was to create a look book for a new clothing collection called 'submerged'. The look book consists of layers of paper and tracing paper to give a submerged feel. Designed to create less waste, all the inserts inside the book are made with the offcuts of paper leftover when the book is trimmed to be square.
- A Reinterpretation of The Jungle BooksI have designed a small handcrafted book to illustrate the original seven stories that complete The Jungle Books. Each double page spread consists of an illustration representing one of the seven stories, with a poem or song from the story on the left hand page. The illustrations have been kept balck and white to keep intone with the darkness of the origional stories compared to the Disney version everyone recognises.

Junior DesignerDread
- Milton Keynes, United KingdomFull Time
At Dread I designed new team clothing and visualised new products and ideas for clients. I worked closely with the sales team to do this. I prepared branding pages and product visuals for products going into production whilst communicating with factories to make sure production ran smoothly. I checked samples that came through and photographed new products for the website. I created promotional artwork for the various brands the company had. Creating mock ups of the products that we made on demand on site so that these could be viewed on the webiste was another one of my resposibilities. In 2019 they launched a new brand, I was involved in creating the new logo, online content and brand identity.
