About me
I’m a Senior Graphic Designer with 16 years’ experience in print and digital media, starting on national consumer magazines now specialise in presentations and marketing materials. I’ve worked at some big media companies including Bauer Media, News UK and ITV Commercial. On the side I started working with a friend’s company, designing marketing assets for beauty brands such as Eylure, Facegym and Caudalie, which expanded my skills from print to digital. My recent experience has cemented my love of creating engaging and simple presentations. I love using my creative skills on visual communications and bringing ideas to life, focusing on function as well as aesthetics.
Projects
  • ITV Power Up brand
    ITV Power Up brandEsther, Kayla and myself (The Pitch development team) were tasked to come up with a concept to showcase the sponsorship opportunities that ITV had coming up. We came up with a fresh new brand with a modern and bold look and something that would stand out amongst ITV Commerical's existing assets. We created pitch decks, printed promotional material and props for the sales team to take to media agencies.
  • Love Island sponsorship promotion

  • TV Magazines: TV Soap & TV MAG
    TV Magazines: TV Soap & TV MAGTV Soap and TV Mag are weekly TV listing magazines that come free with The Sun. I was the sole designer on TV Soap and helped out on TV Mag when needed. To keep the TV Soap covers varied, I used different graphic styles to make them bold and bright.
