This fast-paced, varied environment allowed me to master my crafts in web design, animation, social media, content creation, branding, print design, and post-production, all at a professional level.

Junior creativeDDA
- London, United KingdomFull Time
With DDA being a PR agency naturally the workload varied a lot. My main duties as a creative on the team were sporadical and a lot of the time needed yesterday, we worked over socials on a daily basis, which in themselves entailed content creation, animation and digital art. We would also run shoot days for brands where we would offer out full production packages, videography + photography where we would edit and return full assets to client for whatever purpose they needed it. Over the years I was with DDA the experience were paramount and the lessons learned were incredible.
