I am a London-based graphic designer with 10 years experience, working nationally with clients in the Arts, Culture and Not-for-Profit sectors. I understand the requirements and challenges of these sectors and see design as a way to elevate an organisation’s aims and mission. I strive to produce work that is engaging, functional and refined, with a focus on clarity of communication.
I am happy to discuss any design requirements you may have — be it an annual report, the design of a social media campaign or artwork for a show or event. Please get in touch with me to further discuss availability, cost and the scope of the project.
I look forward to hearing from you.

The approach I took for the artwork was to strip everything back to its most basic parts – using only one single colour per production, all black text, and a single, bright colour for the season announcement. After a year
- The Old Vic Season 2022-2023For the 2022–2023 season artwork I introduced a textured gradient background, which was a departure from the usual approach of using solid colour. The inspiration came from the look of the theatre building, which has a two-colour paint job on the facade. I reintroduced the use of multiple text colours after the previous season artwork had relied entirely on black text and this gradient approach was then applied across all artwork in the season. There are limitations inherent in the visual ident
