About me
I am a UK based graphic designer specialising in branding, print and web design. After studying fine art at college and being unsure which direction to take, I worked for several years in various boring office jobs until I could take no more. I decided that I needed to be creative so in January 2014 I quit my job and enrolled at Shillington College in London. At Shillington I learned to use all of the latest software including Adobe Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop. I also learned how to think creatively and solve problems which has all prepared me to start a career in graphic design.

  • Beer Branding & Packaging
    Beer Branding & PackagingCollege brief: To choose a consumer product to package and to create our own brand to go with it. Misty Pigeon Pale Ale is a delightful example of the classic pale ale style. With its fruity and floral characters, balanced with a crisp bitterness, Misty Pigeon has a compelling flavour which is perfect for every occasion. Naturally fermented in the traditional style, a secondary fermentation creates the trademark sediment that gives Misty Pigeon its fine “misty” appearance. Duration: 3 Days
