Before choosing a career in graphic design I worked in the performance industry. My background in this other creative world has enabled me to cultivate broad creative references for my design work & push the dynamism of the ideas I offer. It has also granted me the practical knowledge of how these ideas can be delivered.
I am confident in idea generating and presenting to groups of people whilst being open and responsive to others inputs. Creating toward strategic outcomes, brainstorming collaboratively, imagining beyond the norm, and getting under the skin of how communications are received are fundamental to my practice and something I enjoy.
