About me
A self-taught designer and quote-unquote digital native, I've been throwing stuff together on Photoshop since I was 12 years old making Doctor Who photomanips — which fortunately are lost to the winds of time and obsolete hard drives. Since 2020 I've been contracting for Netflix as a social creative — pitching and creating content for Tiktok, Instagram, Twitter and Youtube, and I'm currently the lead designer/editor on UK posts to the global @netflix Tiktok account. Previously I worked for Social Life, a social media agency specialising in entertainment and young fandom audiences. Moving up the ranks from Junior Designer to Head of Studio, I worked on brands including Mattel, Zynga, Apple and Netflix, across graphic design, video editing, and motion graphics, for any and every social platform around. My favourite part of working in social is finding playful ways to connect with fandom audiences. There are plenty of designers out there who do their jobs for the pure love of design itself - and don’t get me wrong, I love perfectly kerned text - but for me the design & editing is a means to an end, the end goal of having fun and playing in the social media space with fans who want to play with us.
