About me
I am a highly motivated, reliable and conscientious individual with a forward thinking and well-mannered approach. Having studied at the London College of Communication and recently graduated from BA (Hons) Illustration and Visual Media, I have developed a strong enthusiasm and artistic flair for the world of visual communication. With interests in fashion, illustration, set design and other creative outlets, I am looking to secure a position to help develop my current skillset and use my artistic and creative talent to benefit my employer. Demonstrating an ability to work individually, collaboratively and as a strong team player; I offer an excellent attention to detail and ensure tasks are completed to the best of my ability. I feel comfortable using both PC and Apple Mac and have an excellent knowledge of Microsoft Office, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and other Adobe Creative Cloud software.
Projects
- Whistles WardrobeThis project was a submission for the YCN Whistles competition brief. This was a collaborative project in which we had to design a concept and campaign for the first ever Whistles scent. Our concept was 'Whistles Wardrobe' a product that scented clothes by being placed in the wardrobe or in a chest of draws. "To be hung alongside garments in the wardrobe, suspended from a rail or immersed inside a chest of drawers, Whistles Wardrobe will freshen and fragrance clothing. The product, complimentary of the Whistle’s aesthetic, is minimal in design and shape sitting beautifully in any interior or home."
- London Zoo ProjectA project I created during my time studying at the London College of Communication. This project visually explores and communicates the artificial environment and ‘fake habitat’ that can be seen around the London Zoo. All elements seen in these sets were either created by myself or found, all the images were photographed within a photographic studio using a Canon DSLR.

- Oral ExaminationLooking closely at this routine occurrence, photographer Charlotte May and set designer Nathan Taylor have worked to form an alternative visual world; Pulling apart this banal experience and extracting fragments associated with dental health. Close attention to shape and form, clean lines and an isolated colour palette form a series of sterile imagery to please the oral hygiene obsessed; contrasted with playful pops of colour to give a sense of otherworldliness. https://trendland.com/a-visual-t
