Available to hire
I have worked within the design industry for nearly 30 years; designing across multiple disciplines, be it for digital or print.
“No job is too big, no fee is too big” (as the Ghostbusters once said) - Although that’s not entirely my mantra, as I am here to do the smaller, one-off designs. I’m not targeting big budget corporate projects, I’m more interested in helping the small businesses and the individuals. Whether that’s a website design, an email campaign, a logo, or a poster design - the list really is endless; If it needs designing, I can probably find a solution for you.
But no matter the project or the client, there is one thing that I have always held constant - an ethos to remain friendly, helpful and honest - building relationships beyond the professional.
