About me
I have recently graduated from UCA, Epsom and moved back up North to my home county to try save some money. I am enthusiastic and idea driven, worked with strict deadlines and able to manage my time evenly. My main passion lies in Editorial/Publication design, from political propaganda, to hip new magazines, and even children's storybooks. I love to read and collect books, I also love to make them! I have worked freelance for several years now so I have excellent customer service skills, and I can work under strict client demands, or the freedom to express myself.
Projects

I did the intensive research, then wrote the story, illustrated the images and designed the layout. I then sent it to a printers to be professionally published.

     - 
    I passed with a 2:1. My final major project was very controversial and politically linked to the recent general election. My tutors and other staff refused to help me, so I had to learn about several Laws, and I had to teach myself politics and propaganda throughout the journey.
