I am a recent first class graduate in Illustration eager to expand my working knowledge in the creative fields. I am a good communicator who works well with others and am eager to learn and adapt to new situations to give my best to any challenge I take on. I work well as part of a team listening to others' ideas and putting my point across respectfully but equally well when asked to complete tasks on my own, working methodically through these. I like to be challenged in my creative approach and am open to learning and adapting to new software as I am comfortable expanding my creative toolkit.
