About me
EXPLORATION. INTERPRETATION. EXECUTION. I love the craft and ideas behind what I do across any media. With over 8 years experience, I’ve worked at some great boutique agencies such as Socrates Communications and Them Design as well as international agencies like Instinctif Partners. I am a London based graphic designer and professional doodler. I believe my work communicates a passion for ideas, simplicity, craft and typography. Always looking for "Addition through subtraction…" — Massimo Vignelli.

    Activities and Societies: Team Northumbria Boxing | Course Representative | Life Drawing Classes Whilst studying at Northumbria University and learning the craft and history of graphic design, we were encouraged to think, question and explore. Stepping away from modern technology and embracing older techniques like screen printing, letterpress and bookbinding. I treated the course as if I was working in a studio full-time, answering client briefs and developing my ideas with the tutors acting as my Creative Director(s). Many of us, including myself, also took part in live briefs that the University acquired from local design agencies and/or businesses including; • Gardiner Richardson - Hotel Brand • iSTD -Typographic response to 78rpm/mp3 • D&AD - Create Not Hate campaign.
