Hello, I'm Steve!
I have a strong belief that design can be used to create impact and positive change. My passions are brand identity, design for positive change, and the odd whacky side project. My work has been highlighted and shared by The Nationwide Degree Show and selected as a D&AD ‘Ones To Watch’.
I am currently on the lookout for the next adventure, I’m ready to experience a new city, get myself out there more and surround myself with people I look up to. I'm a big believer in placing yourself around individuals who inspire and push you to become better.
