I am a graphic designer with a background rooted in Fine Art. I work with multiple disciplines - from digital programmes like adobe suite to various methods of traditional printmaking. Currently, I am working towards my Bachelors of Art in Fine Art with my specialisms being in printmaking, digital design, text-based work and font creation. Throughout the course of my undergrad, I've studied the importance of cohesive design, layout, structure and typography - all of which have provided me with immaculate attention to detail. Beyond studying, I have also taken on multiple freelance projects, designing posters and flyers for local filmmakers and performers, as well as creating marketing materials for mine and fellow students art exhibitions. During my final year, I’ve played a key marketing and design role in producing the catalogue for our end-of-year degree show. These projects have all strengthened my ability to take a brief from concept to completion, balancing creative thinking with practical execution, as well as building my admin and time management skills. I'm confident in Adobe Suite, Canva, Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 and am eager to contribute fresh concepts, a passion for Visual Design and my hands-on attitude to new and exciting projects. I hope to connect soon!…

    paper 'ARGIE-BARGIE!'

    I worked with an independent film-maker to create a poster for their short film; ‘ARGIE-BARGIE!’. Over the course of this project, I learnt about the subject matter and background of the film in order to create a poster with relevant colour schemes and design choices in order to accurately reflect the tone of the film. I worked closely with the producer and director, provided multiple options and adhered to their proposed revisions in order to create something that all parties involved were satisfied with.
