I'm a brand designer, illustrator, and typographer based in London. I have worked in the creative industry for 17 years, eight of which I spent at McCann, where I worked on a variety of accounts ranging from charities to global corporations. Most recent freelance projects include a rebrand for BIGTXN and Anglepoise. Recently I have also collaborated with watch brands such as TAG Heuer as an illustrator (60 years of the Carrera), but also with collectors on visualising their special orders. I have been featured in several magazines across the watch industry. Another one of my specialisations is typographic logo refinement as I have designed typefaces in the past and therefore know how to modify letterforms correctly.
