Having worked in print and publishing for almost 10 years, I have had the opportunity to work for an array of established and prestigous titles such as British GQ, Esquire, Elle, The Irish Independent and across the entire Telegraph portfolio. I have carried out roles including art direction, editorial re-design, commissioned iconography and publication branding and have been delighted to win numerous awards during this time. Currently I am the Art Director of Features for The Daily & Sunday Telegraph newspaper.
