Hi, I'm Alan Dennedy, a Dublin-based Senior Graphic Designer with 11+ years of experience across print, digital, and national campaigns. Since earning my BA (Hons) in Visual Communications in 2013, I've built a strong skill set through freelance work, print production, and professional roles, delivering design solutions for individual clients and large organisations. I currently serve as Senior Graphic Designer for the Fianna Fáil Parliamentary Party in Dáil Éireann, where I collaborate with Senators, TDs, Ministers, and the Taoiseach to develop clear, impactful communications. I lead a team of designers to meet tight deadlines and oversee branding, social media assets, presentations, and publication design across local and national campaigns. Throughout my career I’ve earned a reputation for delivering clear, effective, and visually compelling design with meticulous attention to detail, efficiency, and strong project management from concept to completion. I thrive in fast-paced, time-sensitive environments and enjoy turning complex briefs into cohesive, strategically driven visuals that support political and public-facing messaging.
