About me
Graduating with a First Class Honours from Winchester School of Art in 2015, I taught myself the necessary Graphic Design skills to enter the industry. Initially focusing on digital art installations, I managed to place on a three month residency where I developed artwork that was taken to the London Art Fair on the same year. It was at this residency where I honed my interest in Brand Design. Since then I have been developing my graphic skills and worked with a number of companies including brands such as YouTube, Riot [Gaming], The Teletubbies, 52 Group and Avita Medical. I have learnt how to conceptualise new brands fast and efficiently, utilising resources around me and focusing on teamwork to implement ideas. I’m looking for the next stage of my career, where I can commit more time to developing the artist direction of projects and focusing on the details that create a refined brand.
