About me
Hi i'm David — I am a positive, driven, flexible, and open minded creative designer. I have recently graduated from Shillington College London and I am now looking to take the next step in my design career. I have a great interest in branding, packaging, print, typography, and front end web design. Since graduating I have worked on various freelance projects including logo design, brand identity, web banners, web interface design, menu’s, brochures, and company profile presentations & reports - taking briefs from idea generation right through to finished artwork. I have a wide range of experience in sales, marketing, and digital advertising having spent time working in the industry. Before studying graphic design I worked as a Business Development Manger for an online marketing company called The Beans Group here in London. Having spent the past 6 months living and breathing design I am now ready to make the next move in my design career, and I would love the opportunity to do so with some of the best talent in the business. Please get in touch if you like my work - thanks!
