I’m a freelance illustrator & art director with ten years experience in the creative industry.
I spent seven of those years working as a conceptual designer in the advertising industry. My experience includes working with small, independently run agencies as well as large international names (and everywhere in between).
In 2019 I worked as creative director on Over the Alps, a mobile game that my team and I worked with Apple to produce. At the height of development we employed 13 freelancers from developers to artists and animators. While producing much of the art and design myself, I also lead the creatives we worked with, making sure everyone was on track and that our creative standards were always met.
Working as a part of a great team is always the best part of the job for me. Whether thats leading a brief from concept to execution, or working alongside art directors and copywriters to help bring their ideas to life - I’m in my happy place.

Unused or abandoned sketches and ideas from projects are always worth keeping in a folder somewhere for a rainy day - or week, it's great having a concept for a short personal pie

However they play a much more important role than natures health and safety for airborne cyclists. Hedgerows are the vital stitching in the patchwork of our countryside. Not only are they beautiful, with shifting seasonal colours, but they also provide homes and corridors f
