I'm an enthusiastic Junior Graphic Designer based in South East London who graduated from Shillington College. One of the qualities I pride myself on is being a really personable and approachable individual who also has proven strengths in creating, communicating, and designing impactful concepts to tight deadlines. My past experiences span amendments to illustrative artwork for an events company, website wireframe redesigns and amendments, brand identity design for a start-up, qualitative and quantitative project work, customer services, analytics, fine art practices, and data design work. Thanks to my experience with data, I have a great command and understanding of digital data collection and visualisation software in addition to key design tools. Throughout my career, I've always employed a warm and open approach to communication and collaboration. Finally, I have a great eye for detail and attention-grabbing visual design. Overall, I'm seeking out new junior and/or internship opportunities to contribute and nurture my graphic design skills.

Inspired by his ground breaking, feel good coming of age movies, this concept was quickly shaped by the awkward, humourous and quirky tones to Hughes’ film genre. The colour palette aims to invoke a light hearted, comedic tone, coupled with awkward type orientations and treatments, to really give the reader a sense of the youthful akwardness so often depicted throughout his films.
- FoundRewound IdentityIdentity design for a new analogue store in the Fitzroy District of Melbourne, Australia. Virginia Reed is an experienced freelance photographer with a passion for all things analogue and wanted to open up a store that celebrated these products by selling them on and hosting engaging workshops on site. The key requests were to make sure the identity envoked a sense of adventure, whilst staying welcoming and inspiring to her predominantly youthful, creative demographic without falling into any r
- Dance for Dementia CampaignA campaign focussed on the mental health and wellbeing of Dementia sufferers, their carers and their families by encouraging them to get involved in the big Dance for Dementia event. The concept is centered around scientific evidence that music and dance not only help to bring calm and a sense of presentness and recollection for those with Dementia, but they also help to reduce the risks of dementia in young people and improve people’s mental health and wellbeing. The campaign not only aims to

Graphic DesignShillington College
London, United Kingdom
I participated in a the 3 month full-time course with Shillington College beginning September 2020 and graduating in December 2020.
Here I learnt how to master Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, along with Sketch to tackle multiple print and digital student briefs throughout the course. I gained fast and effective experience in time management, communication of design thinking, meeting deadlines for 1-2 day or 1 week briefs, conceptual thinking and the visualisation process overall. Having built up a large base of projects, I selected 6 main projects near the end of the course to perfect and display in my portfolio to show off what I have achieved.
