About me

I am an enthusiastic and dedicated Graphic Designer, originally from Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland. Solving problems and always aiming to produce effective and intriguing designs to the best of my ability is what I strive for. My passion lies in creating professional pieces of design across all disciplines including editorial, packaging, branding and type. I am also great with my hands and love to create physical mock-ups that are of a high professional quality, whatever the material.
