About
I have been a professional designer for many years and I bring a broad set of design skills and software expertise to every project. I’m always eager to learn new methods to improve my work for the benefit of myself, the team, and the environments I work in.
I work well both independently and in a team, and I consider myself creative, reliable and hardworking with a strong willingness to succeed whatever challenge is put my way. My career has included roles with Thames Valley Police, First Line Ltd, NBTY Europe, and freelance projects, delivering branding, internal/external communications, publications and digital graphics.
