About me
Being an artistic person from a young age, I've spent the past 15+ years developing an extensive range of creative skills. This has led me to having strong background experience being a creative professionally for almost 10 years. My creative history started off around music, teaching myself to play multiple instruments from the age of 12 I went on to study a diploma in guitar, through which led me to achieve grade 8 in both the guitar and music theory, after which I would perform nationally around the UK and start a local promotional company putting on concerts for touring international bands around the North East. Around 2013 I became interested in fashion and began developing a network of other like minded creatives. Since then I have been involved in a lot of interesting projects and took my creative matters in a different direction, focusing on creating digital content using design, 3D, animation, video, photography and AR. For the past 8+ years I have had many different job roles and creative endeavors including running my own clothing companies, being a freelance digital designer, animator and photographer as well as being a branding consultant for technology companies. After 5 years working I decided to study a BA in Fashion Communication and graduated with a First Class Honors in 2021 - My work focus was around heavily the adoption of new technologies in fashion and what it could mean for the future. Reporting and developing projects around tech such as reality bending, AI, metaverse and blockchain use. My approach is creative and innovative and I have the ability to adapt my wide range of skills to any need, drawing inspiration from many avenues to maintain contemporary and relevant results in my work.
