Work Experience

CEO at Hayland Freelance
July 15, 2014 - Present
I provide calm, reliable creative and operational support for businesses and agencies who need work handled properly. I work across one-off projects and short-term engagements, supporting busy or complex work where clarity, structure, and dependable delivery matter. My role is to make things easier — not louder — by bringing organisation, clear communication, and thoughtful problem-solving to the process. Much of my work involves stepping into existing projects, clarifying scope, priorities, and expectations, and helping things move forward without unnecessary urgency or firefighting. Clients value not having to manage every detail, and knowing that work is being handled with care and realism. I regularly support: Sole traders and growing businesses Agencies needing additional support during busy periods Project-based or one-off work where experience matters My approach is straightforward and collaborative. I’m clear about timelines, honest about what’s achievable, and focused on delivery that stands up over time — not rushed fixes. If you’re looking for dependable support that feels organised, calm, and easy to work with, I’m happy to discuss whether I’m a good fit for your project.

    paper Digital and print brochure design for a corporate sustainability report

    Delivered a digital and printed brochure designed to communicate complex, regulatory information to shareholders in a clear and visually engaging way, while remaining true to the brand’s tone and standards.

    The project involved close collaboration with the Sustainability team in the USA and head office in London, requiring careful coordination across time zones and clear communication throughout. A key challenge was translating detailed data into accessible visual formats, including the development of isometric-style data visualisations, alongside structured text layout and refinement of existing imagery.

    The result was a cohesive, professional publication that balanced clarity, accuracy, and visual interest — making essential information easier to absorb without oversimplifying the content.

    paper Training Modules

    When the Kinesiology association approached us with their training modules, they we’re
    Text heavy
    No structure
    No consistency
    No Branding

    Our task was to liaise with the teachers to produce a series of training modules that provided:
    Flow
    Consistency
    Simplicity

    This resulted in a confidence boost for the trainers and clear and concise slides that were super easy for the students to follow.

    paper Medical PPT

    Supported a growing business with presentation design to clarify messaging and improve client-facing materials. My role focused on structure, visual clarity, and consistency across slides.

    We took a text heavy/stock imagery 4:3 ratio deck and turned it into a sleek modern 16:9 branded template, that was easy to edit and adapt. The deck’s purpose was to accompany a speaker at a medical convention.
