About me

Freelance design without the drama. I’m Julie Nicholls, a freelance designer based in Essex. I work remotely for design, digital and media agencies whenever they need a little extra help. I also work directly with all kinds of businesses to help them connect with their audiences through good design. I’ve got years of experience, am business-minded, flexible, organised, calm under pressure and you can judge my creativity for yourself. However, I save the drama for my designs, not the process of creating them. If you're looking for an experienced freelance designer for your next project, let's chat.
