About me

I’m a multi-disciplinary design director, designer, and illustrator with over 15 years’ experience working in London. Especially passionate about food & drink, I enjoy working with companies of all shapes and sizes, from start-ups to established brands. Whilst I specialise in branding and packaging, I’ve got bags of experience creating everything from social media posts to sampling stands. I collaborate with my clients from brief right through to the final expression and beyond, listening carefully to understand objectives and audience. Regardless of the challenge, I offer creative solutions built on plain-spoken, ambitious ideas — always grounded in research and carefully crafted in their execution.
