    paper Recent Client Work

    What you’re seeing, and why it works.

    Install Fit UK
    A black‑and‑white gym photo forms the backdrop; a bold dumbbell icon and diagonal cut separate the brand area from the contact details. The monochrome palette lets the white logo pop, while the angular cut adds energy that matches the fitness theme.

    Accelerate Creation
    A teal light‑streak background flows beneath a brush‑stroke “A” logo; a curved edge frames the contact block. The sweeping gradient suggests speed and creativity—perfect for a digital studio—while the soft curve keeps the layout friendly and modern.

    Optimum TA
    A deep slate‑blue field holds a hand‑drawn “O” emblem; an oval shape and a cut‑out portrait of the director lead into the contact info. The cool colour and sketched logo convey trust and personality, and the portrait humanises the brand, encouraging replies.

    All three pieces turn a routine e‑mail signature into a mini‑advert: they reinforce brand identity, read clearly on mobile and dark‑mode clients, and keep contact details instantly accessible.

    paper Personal Protection Alarm Bracelet (Freelance Work)

    This project was for a freelance client who came to me with the problem of women nowadays having no way to have a discrete personal protection alarm, for when going out socialising and not wanting to carry around a clumpy key chain alarm.

    With this, I created a product that was delicate and ethically pleasing while being able to house all the tech needed for an alarm system.

    paper Recent Freelance Work

    Becoming a freelance designer has allowed to venture out to new clientele like never before when working for a company. I not only get to work on projects from all around the country, but get to do work i generally enjoy, meeting people and building a network of my own.

    Going from university into the working world has been a change, giving new challenges, projects, and obstacles to overcome. My recent work at Bainbridge International (Team O) involved doing live animations for their new life jackets, with live graphics and an animation added to their website. I also do material testing with detailed reports for ISO-regulated products involving graphic design. Also creating custom products that have been engineered for a show stand which was fun working on.

    paper Gybe Pro - Final Major Project

    For my third-year project, I aimed to create a tool that would benefit both students and instructors in the rapidly growing field of water sports. Drawing from my passion for sailing and instructing, I sought to develop an innovative teaching aid that enhances the learning experience and provides valuable insights for improving performance.

    Introducing Gybe is a revolutionary teaching aid designed to rival GoPro and other action camera brands. Gybe focuses specifically on the needs of water sports enthusiasts, offering features tailored to this dynamic environment. The core functionality of Gybe includes live video streaming, performance tracking, and monitoring capabilities, all of which are crucial for effective instruction.

    Gybe is equipped with a camera that mounts to the mast, ensuring that students are always in view while staying unobtrusive during boat manoeuvres. This setup allows for continuous live video streaming directly to an instructor’s device, enabling real-time feedback and assessment. Additionally, Gybe records sessions for later review, facilitating detailed analysis and progress tracking.

    Paired with a dedicated app, Gybe creates a seamless connection between the instructor and student. This app not only supports live streaming but also allows users to pair devices and access recorded sessions, making each training session more interactive and informative.

    Developing Gybe was an incredibly rewarding experience, combining my love for sailing with cutting-edge technology to create a product with real-world applications. Gybe has significant potential for further development, and I am excited about its future prospects in transforming water sports education.
