I’m a freelance designer that has acquired a broad skill set, from infographics, POS, packaging to UI design. My strengths lie in communicating complex messages simply, whether that be across the print or digital spectrum. I enjoy applying myself to any project that needs that creative injection.
Outside of design, I enjoy promoting sustainability and natural building, being a Director of Cob in the Community, who teach traditional cob building methods in London, and also selling reclaimed furniture on my site www.palletfurniture.co.uk
From my experience in these varied professions, I benefit from being equally technically and artistically minded.
