About me
I am an experienced Art Director and Graphic Designer looking forward to my next challenge. I had been working at a publishing & events company for over 9 years and my previous Senior Level role saw me direct, manage and execute projects from inception to completion. Prior to and now since 2020, I have been freelancing as much as I can. I am traditionally an Art Director/ Visual Designer and would love to explore the worlds of AR/VR & UX/UI.
