About me
Strong experience of working within a creative team on a local, regional and international level. Experience of working with artists from different art forms and in different settings and with different communities. I have a strong interest in working with people collaboratively and communicating ideas visually with a contemporary and interesting style. I’m passionate abut all forms of printed and digital design. My degree has both shown me the breadth of the creative industries and given me a strong foundation of knowledge to build upon.

Education
BA Hons Illustration
Edinburgh, United Kingdom
Studying illustration and visual communication using a variety of methods and working on a variety of projects both internally and externally. A broad range of book illustration and editorial briefs have given me a strong foundations for future work. In my final year I have built on my own interests in people and their reactions in certain social situations to create a body of work that mixes social commentary with gestural characters.
