I am a Graphic Designer and Creative Consultant with over 5 years experience working within the food, music and social profit sectors. My diverse skill set and fluency in a variety of design tools (most notably Adobe Suite and Cinema 4D), alongside my strong people skills and passion for the projects I involve myself in, allow me to deliver quality content and services that effectively and efficiently respond to client briefs. In addition to my formal education, my skills have been developed through a variety of roles and projects while living and working in different locations, including Leeds, London, and Barcelona. I am currently living in Barcelona but will be returning to London in early 2021, and am looking for opportunities to work in a team environment and build on and expand my existing skill set.
