👩🏻🎓As a recent graduate from the University of Leeds Graphic and Communication Design BA Hons course (in which I received a first class honours degree), I am keen to kickstart my professional career. I am an extremely passionate worker and will appreciate any consideration for positions.
My academic work throughout the three years was largely influenced by my passions for sustainability and storytelling; which I hope to continue in my professional work.
My 12k word dissertation which received a First examined the role of graphic props in film. It focussed on the works of auteur Wes Anderson and key scenes in his films in which graphic design played a vital role.
Volunteering part-time as a graphic designer for nonprofit organisations, I strive to promote issues that I believe are significant.
Alongside my University and extra curricular activities, I have continued to extend my knowledge in subjects beyond the curriculum; partaking in online courses hosted by FutureLearn, Coursera, and Linkedin Learning.

- "Why'd They Write This In Letters Cut Out Of A Magazine?" An Investigation Into The Impact That Graphic Props' Meta-Language Has Upon Narrative In Wes Anderson's Films.Having just completed my final piece of coursework for my Graphic and Communication Design degree at the University of Leeds, I wanted to thank everyone who helped make it happen. My essay was on the role of graphic objects in Wes Anderson’s motion pictures: from ransom letters to dog tags, each filmic prop enhances storytelling and world-building. Graphic design in film is a topic rarely discussed in academia. As with any material culture, graphic props deserve to be analysed in depth. Anderso
