About

I’m a creative designer with 25+ years’ experience helping brands, retailers and businesses turn ideas into effective e-commerce, digital, marketing and print creative. I’m hands-on across Shopify and WordPress, with a strong eye for layout, typography, colour, product presentation and visual consistency—so everything feels premium and works as well as it looks.

Currently I’m a designer at N.PEAL, a British heritage luxury cashmere brand, supporting the Shopify store and building campaigns across digital, email, social, paid advertising and print. I also work directly with independent businesses on websites and brand assets, comfortably improving existing experiences while staying within brand guidelines and delivering polished work to deadline.
