About me
Hi, thanks for visiting my page! I am a South London based Graphic Designer. After graduating with first class honours in Education and Social Sciences from University College London (UCL), I pursued my passion for design at Shillington College and have not looked back since. Over the last 5 years I had key roles in the marketing department of educational charities and schools. My most recent project was the rebranding of an oversubscribed independent school in Wandsworth. I love working with colour, illustrations and emotive photography to create original and eye-catching designs. In my free time I can be found in the garden with a glass of wine, exploring the English countryside or travelling. Like my portfolio? I would love to hear from you! Send me an email or get in touch via LinkedIn/Instagram.
