About me
I am a Surface Designer specialising in digital design for fashion and textiles. I have been working as a Graphic Designer within the fashion and textile industry since graduating in 2009 and have run my own clothing labels along side freelance projects for clients and brands. I can offer something unique with my knowledge of all the stages involved in running a business; materials, production, sampling, styling and photography, marketing, website design, sales, accounting and customer service. Having been responsible for the brand identity and marketing for my own label I have a lot of experience designing graphics and content for a fashion environment. I have a strong understanding of how to create a brand identity that reflects the story, materials, and aspirations of the designer. I am highly driven and organised with a lot of experience with small businesses and managing the different aspects involved. I would like to find a role that exercises my design skills and can provide a challenge. I like problem solving and finding ways to maximise efficiency.
