About me
With over 4 years' experience in the creative industry I have worked at Vision Nine – an events agency based in Covent Garden – as a middleweight designer and creative. While working on festivals and events such as BBC Music Introducing Live, Boardmasters and NASS, my responsibilities revolve around digital content and branding – from concept creation to final roll-out of assets and brand guidelines. As well as working within the creative team, the projects require collaboration and strong communication with the marketing team and stakeholders to meet tight deadlines. An example of this is the Boardmasters 2020 festival branding, in which I took the lead in designing this year’s visual identity and the roll-out of artwork. In addition, I created the 2020 brand guidelines to ensure the correct usage of assets across the company and externally. Prior to Vision Nine I worked at Rebel Kitchen – a company specialising in plant-based food and drinks – for 3 years. I joined as a junior designer and creative, and was responsible for designing and directing the visual identity and language for the lifestyle brand. This involved working collaboratively to ensure the brand identity was effective, impactful and met the company values. Working with the marketing team, I also led the design direction for the out-of-home product campaigns which were printed across major London Underground stations. All of these experiences have honed my extensive knowledge and skills in using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, After Effects, Premiere Pro and Maxon Cinema 4D – as well as producing animations and other video content. My goal is to achieve effective, high quality work for all clients and brands, based on my passion and training in design.

  • Multicultural London English
    Multicultural London EnglishMulticultural London English is a typographic exploration into the hybrid dialect sweeping its way across London and the UK. Otherwise known as street slang, MLE is evolving rapidly with the help of the music genre, grime, and the rise in technology. ​ Each publication consists of a grime track by either Skepta or Akala and has been translated into proper English. The original lyrics, spoken in MLE, begin overlapping and taking over the English language.  The publications serve to highlight and
