About me
I'm a London based designer and BA (Hons) Graphic and Media Design graduate from London College of Communication. Inspired through storytelling and data, I love creating pieces that capture the unusual and utilizing into interesting design and physical media. My work uses a strong visual language with an editorial approach, however my interest for motion design and UI/information design also provides a heavy influence throughout. Available for permanent or freelance opportunities, and collaborations.
