About me
I am a senior graphic designer with over 7 years of experience in the industry, currently working at Evode Group. I was previously at BBC Worldwide for 5 years, having graduated with a BTEC Graphic Design & Illustration degree from the University of Hertfordshire. In my job as a designer, I excel in creating visually exciting work at a very high standard and juggling various design jobs at once without ever letting my standards drop, I am proficient at meeting tight deadlines and working well under pressure. I am deeply passionate about every piece of work that I do as I have a huge love of all things artistic. I am very dedicated, open-minded and flexible in my approach in order to suit the particular brief and work effectively as part of a team as well as being able to work on my own initiative. I am also flexible in my graphic style, easily able to match the "feel" of a project.
I am always very enthusiastic in anything that I do, I continuously work to the best of my abilities and I constantly strive to go further. I love to socialise with friends and family, and I enjoy all social events such as the cinema, theatre, and concerts. I’m a confident, bubbly and out-going person, as well as being loyal, hard-working and conscientious. I have a friendly and positive nature, and I am easy to get along with.
