About me

I am a multidisciplinary artist and designer based in London. I have a incredibly strong interest in all things design and have a keen eye for upcoming movements in trends. I studied for my BA(Hons) Fine Art Drawing at Camberwell College of Arts and have been keeping myself as creatively busy as I can ever since. I am currently working freelance as a visual merchandiser and assistant set designer. Working along side brands, designers and a multitude of creative people including: Liberty LTD, Ozwald Boateng, Murdock LTD, HASA Architects for MYO Swimwear, Gracie Wales Bonner, Un-catergorized, KK Obi, Dexter Lander, Lauren Doughty and Charlotte Lucy Whitehead. I am currently looking for a full time position in a vocation that will match as well as strengthen my current experience within creative direction and branding.
