About me

I'm an illustrator/designer living in Glasgow. I'm influenced by eco-friendly design, bold colours, foliage and cartoons. The areas of design that currently interest me the most are packaging, branding, content creation & motion graphics. I like being hands on & making stuff but I also enjoy digital work. I'm into gifs just now.
