Hello, I'm a graphic designer and digital marketer based in the UK. - I've recently started to branch out into the world of digital marketing, by taking on an exciting job role within this.
I graduated from university in 2021 and I'm trying to work my way into the creative industry and take on new challenges.
I usually incorporate collage, photography, and hand-made textures into my work; combining digital and analogue graphics to create engaging visuals, whilst achieving a professional look. Messy by nature, I love being creative and getting my hands dirty! (Mainly covered in glue, glitter and paper from collaging.)
On the side, I own a fashion brand company and I like to create and sell greeting cards, as this helps to keep my creative mind active. I'm also an illustrator, baker and animal lover. I am always hungry for knowledge and learning new skills; aspiring never to stop learning.

Here is my artist's statement, giving further insight into my brand's background, purpose and aspirations: A brand that’s built upon real change; not just box-ticking exercise, BiteBackFash
- St Michael's Hospice : January 2022Commissioned Charity Brief for St. Michael's Hospice | Well-Being by Post | Voluntary Commission . This brief was a re-design of the well-being brochures 3 and 6. These brochures desperately needed a designer's touch and more relaxing aesthetics. The challenge of this brief was to re-design and create two well-being booklets for terminally ill patients.
