About me
I am a confident and creative designer, with the skills of a madman and the passion to boot. I have worked extensively in-house for various companies helping build stronger market leading brands
My key strengths are working within B2C and B2B marketing environments bringing the ability to couple creative ideation along with a strong sense of design fundamentals that can be seen throughout my portfolio and website.
I have over 16 years of extensive design experience in the traditional and digital landscapes and I am fully proficient in all aspects of the Adobe Creative Cloud.
I am experienced in developing and presenting mood boards for pitches and storyboards for animations. As a keen photographer I have applied this into the working environment with organising photo-shoots for publications and digital.
I love working with a creative marketing team and I am a highly motivated individual, I’ve always put ideas first. So although I do the everyday design stuff, please expect a lot more from me than
just pretty pictures. Instead, you should expect a one-man creative team who can set a brief, find an insight, come up with a big idea and then turn it into a finished piece of design
