I am a graphic designer with experience in branding and packaging design as well as product design and media. I have had placements at a printing company (Typecraft), design agency (Asha & Co.) and an art gallery (Nottingham Contemporary), which have given me insight into various fields of graphics. I find most inspiration in the process—researching and generating ideas—and the physical aspect of design—creating products or imagery for a brand. My university work has given me the opportunity to explore the broadness of the design world, showing me that it doesn’t have to be limited to one skillset. I hope to maintain the same versatility in ideas and skills in the future. I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy translating research into tangible design outcomes. I’m motivated by learning from different studios and tools, and I aim to continue expanding my range across branding, packaging, product design and publication projects.
