About me
A graphic design graduate with a good combination of design and sales / marketing experience in a number of business sectors. Proven ability to deliver results within demanding environments and working with a wide variety of clients design requirements and styles.
If you are seeking an individual capable of working to deadlines, working with others and growing new and established client relationships then my experience, determination and strong work ethic will prove invaluable.
My ambition is to establish myself within a design agency that encompasses a strong team and offers good future prospects that will allow me to enhance my own skills and potentially gain further qualifications in the graphic design field.
Projects
- Not RepeatedNot Repeated. Not Repeated is an Up and coming vintage clothing brand based in the North East of England. This was one of my favourite design projects as I was giving full responsibility and control over the final outcome. The idea was to create a brand that symbolised retro fashion trends such as check, aztec, patch work and the 1980’s era of the shell suit. I based my design on the style of clothing Not repeated were looking to sell.
- Ape VinylApe Vinyl. Skating Apparel Company looking to completely rebrand. I’ve always had an interest in skating so I was looking forward to putting my ideas to them. Brief from APE was that they wanted their brand to represent, “the old school skaters”. With this in mind I started to create some designs which I thought would appeal to the already established skaters whilst also grabbing the attention of new skaters. Creating a board using a lot of pastel colours with bold designs was my main focus.
