About me
As a highly creative and extremely self-motivated individual, I consistently deliver results to a professional standard and take great pride in expanding my knowledge, and skill set. Whether working as a freelance creative or within e-commerce as a sales and customer relations manager, my ambitious work ethic and keen eye for detail, has allowed me to broaden my creative output and business understanding. I graduated from Chelsea College of Art in 2016, with a degree in Graphic Design Communication. During this time, I was awarded a D&AD New Blood Award, for a content creation brief set on the theme of individuality, by DAZED. This led me to become the recipient of an opportunity with the visual team at NTS Radio; recording and editing content, setting up live streams, and creative content further pushing the station's online engagement. Since then I have worked with a number of clients, to build each brand image from the ground up. This has included start-ups within the food and beverage industry, new venue spaces, and the nightlife industry. I have worked closely with each client producing logos, packaging, editorial print, pitch decks, and motion graphics to name a few. When presented with challenges during these projects I have adapted and worked with feedback to develop and deliver exceptional results in a timely manner. I am highly proficient with the following Adobe programs: Illustrator, Indesign, Photoshop and recently I have been working more with motion design, expanding my knowledge with software such as After Effects, Touch Designer, and Blender. I am always on the lookout to push my skills further to produce successful and engaging projects in an ever-evolving industry.
