Over the past three years on my course I've developed a solid understanding of the design process from initial briefing, to delivering and presenting; and also experienced producing work on a professional level during a placement with Nottingham Contemporary. I've fine tuned my technical skills on Photoshop, Indesign, and Illustrator, and taught myself animation for a project that was later chosen to represent my university at D&AD New Blood Festival. As a recent graduate I'm keen to broaden my knowledge and continue to develop my skills, in a fast-paced and collaborative, industry environment.
