With over 20 years of experience in the print industry, I bring a deep understanding of design from initial concept through to final artwork. My passion lies in creating impactful logos and brand identities, with a particular focus on trend-led design that keeps print fresh, relevant, and exciting. During my time at Next Home, I gained a strong foundation in commercial design — from crafting eye-catching front covers for directories to presenting polished concepts to senior stakeholders. I thrive on pushing layout and design forward, blending creativity with a keen awareness of market needs. I’m known for being commercially minded, dependable, and easy to work with — always bringing a good sense of humour and a grounded approach. Outside the studio, I’m inspired by the natural world and find balance in my love of the great outdoors.
