BA Fashion Communication and PromotionNottingham Trent University

Throughout the duration of my university course, I was involved in a large number of both team and independent projects.
For my final year dissertation project, I chose to look into the relationship between identity, class, and fashion. This project honed in on my analytical writing, graphic, editorial, and photography & styling skills.
I also worked on a live brief with Stack Magazines as part of a team project to create Chintzy Magazine (a tri-annual fashion and lifestyle print publication). My main roles included photographer, stylist, artworker, and editor. The magazine proved to be successful and we were contacted by independent print stores requesting to stock copies for retail.
During my final year, I was a member of the degree show team. My roles were in both the marketing and design teams. The work included helping to prepare marketing and show materials, organising the distribution of promotional material, consulting in design and working on the graphics for the show.
