In short, I love what I do.
I graduated with a degree in Graphic and Media Design and
have been a Designer across print and digital since 2016.
I design because I’m obsessed with creating beautiful things.
I have a creative eye, steady hand and sharp attention to detail.
I work hard because it’s very hard not to when I get passionate
about design. Above all I’m a quick learner and easy to work with.
It’s cliche but I want to learn new skills, softwares and processes.
My cheesy line for the day: “Designers see things in layers.”
I have a strong knowledge within print design. But work with
digital assets on a daily basis. I have a broad skill set, including
Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, InVision, ECRM
(Emarsys and MailChimp), Gifs, Animation, Photography and
basic photo editing.
I’m always learning, developing, going to talks, workshops and
creative events to learn more, even if that means teaching myself.
Work history
Designer And Design Team LeaderIamt Ltd
- London, United KingdomFull Time
At IAMT I am the only Designer, working simultaneously for 4 sub-brands. I am the Design Team Leader, managing two freelance designers and design for print, digital and social and work directly with the Creative Director while liaising with other teams as the face of the design team.
I am responsible for the management of freelancers schedules and workload. I organise projects between designers, seeing them through from start to finish, making sure to meet deadlines and adhere to the brief. As well as the responsibility of being in all creative meetings and development, I work very closely with our photographer, editor’s, illustrator and videographer.
I have complete responsibility for everything printed and all packaging, which involves making sure all files are print ready before sending off, building relationships with printers and managing deliveries between printers and our warehouses.
Second to our Creative Director, I am the next point of call for anything design related and have been instrumental in rebranding, developing brand guidelines and aiding any creative strategies.
I have lost two senior designers within my time here and while hard, I have risen to the opportunity of taking on responsibilities and creative outside of my role, which has developed me a lot.
