Projects
- Scope brand illustrationDuring our rebranding phase working with The Team, I was lead designer on concepting, developing, and creating our new brand illustrations and guidelines. I designed them to be fully accessible; with strong identifiable shapes and strokes to boost visual clarity, and recongnisable, literal imagery to aid understanding and reduce ambiguity. I wrote an article for The Team where I talk about the collaborative process of developing Scope’s illustration style, which you can read here - https://www.
- Mindful Monsters Week School PackMindful Monsters Week is a constructive way of introducing fun and interactive activities to young primary school students over the course of a week to improve positivity, creativity, relaxation, concentration and resilience. The pack includes a Mindful Monsters Week guide, lesson plans, certificates, posters, stickers, donation box, colouring-in sheets, and a handy folder to keep everything in.

To highlight the issue and put disabled fans at the heart of the game, Southampton FC will wore a Scope-branded shirt for their home match against Manchester United on Wednes
- Special Educational Needs Provision - Parents' BookletA booklet I designed from concept through to completion, whilst I worked as an in-house designer for Stockport Council.
