I am fresh out of university where I graduated with a BA Cons degree in graphic design.
I think of myself as a fun, bubbly and out going person who does not take herself too seriously. I have been a creative person since I can remember I always knew that I would not be the average 9-5 working office girl. I need to create, experiment different pieces of design and just have fun!

- Living with ParkinsonsThis project was very personal to me as it was based around my family and something we have all been dealing with for years now.

United KingdomPart Time
When I first joined the IKEA family I started off as just your average sales assistant, It is a part time role that went along side my studies at university. Sometimes left to use my own initiative and work on specific departments solely. During Christmas periods I am usually asked to help out in other departments making me flexible and versatile. I have been given creative tasks in my department to create occasional displays I.e Halloween/Christmas/Valentines Day, where I am given the freedom to design fun and interactive ways for the customer to get inspiration from. I have been working at Ikea for 4 years now and as my studies have come to an end I am ready to find my dream job as a graphic designer.
