About me
With over twelve years in the industry, I have accumulated a range of experience from working inhouse... Roaming as a freelance designer, illustrator and retoucher in the UK, Australia and New Zealand... To working in a number of fast-paced design agencies. During this time I have worked on a wide range of projects developing concept design and creative across web, media and print. Whilst continuing to work as a freelancer, I am interested in looking for a permanent role where I can put down roots and develop brilliant work, whilst being part of a creative team. As a designer I thrive on the challenge of being creative every day, developing ideas and interpreting briefs to deliver high quality product to clients. I also run the London Surfers Meetup group, administrating the Facebook group of over 3,500 members, organising monthly surf trips and events that are regularly attended by 50+ members.

Initial concepts were visualised in scamps with reference imagery to give context and presented to the client. The final artwork was worked up as high quality visual for use in promotional materials such as the portrait sales sheet shown.
