About me

I’m a creative graphic artist currently based in Margate, Kent. So what makes me different? I have had a passion for art and design since childhood and it’s this enthusiasum that has continued throughout my adult life into university and now into my future as a graphic artist. I have worked freelance alongside employment for a number of years, juggling hours and deadlines to develop my knowlege and experience in the industry. As well as visual communication I also create collages, enjoy photography and creative direction. I believe it is this knowledge and application of different fields that helps me create imaginative design and solve briefs successfully and on time.

Graphic DesignerMG Plumbing and Heating
May 2018 - Jun 2018United KingdomFreelance
Rebranding MG Plumbing & Heating Services, with an innovative new logo that is recognisable and clear. I wanted the logo to visually represent Mr Gilbert's trade, as well as his name, but also be different from what is out in the market already. I developed the logo to visually represent a radiator, using the graphic shapes of the letter M and G to create a logo that can easily be read as letters but also as an image.

Graphic DesignerAMAZONE Fitness
May 2018 - May 2018United KingdomFreelance
Working with the newly established AMAZONE Fitness, personal Training. The aim was to create a dynamic and recognisable brand, that can be used on business cards, merchandise and online. The client was interested in the use of font, so I created a logo that incorporated the font as well as creating an image that represented "getting in the Zone" and reaching your "targets".
