I am currently a freelance designer and art director working on print and digital projects for various clients. My career spans over 20 years, during which I’ve held roles as both a designer and art director within editorial and content media agencies. I’ve worked across food, fashion, and interiors publications such as Livingetc where I lead the Art desk, Isabelle Oliver managing the creative team and John Brown Media where I oversaw projects from concept to delivery.
Most recently, I’ve held a long-term freelance role at The Lady magazine, where I’ve managed production, created marketing assets for print and digital, developed social content, designed client advertisements, and worked on editorial layouts. I also collaborate with a range of clients on freelance brand and marketing projects.
Before freelancing, I spent over six years at John Brown Media, where I served as Art Director of special projects, primarily on the John Lewis account. My responsibilities included:
• Leading ideas from concept to final execution, maintaining high creative standards throughout
• Presenting visual concepts to internal teams and clients, and refining designs to meet objectives
• Participating in pitches and brainstorming sessions across departments
• Leading food and product photography shoots with stylists, photographers, and set builders — from pre-production and briefing through to post-production and final image selection
• Designing layouts for print, digital assets, and editing video content in collaboration with videographers
• Working closely with the editor and creative director on strategic rebriefs to evolve design within brand guidelines
• Mentoring and supporting other members of the design team
