I’m a freelance designer and art director specialising in bright, bold and colourful design. I create original content and design for brands to help them connect with their audience on a better level. I’ve worked with brands and clients all over the world, ranging from the USA, to London, Bristol and more. I’ve had experience as an in-house creative,, contractor, regular freelancer for companies and a freelancer for one-off projects. When I’m not putting pencil to paper (or fingers to keyboard) you’ll find me exploring the area around me through my lens. I don't see my work as a nine-to-five job that I need a holiday from. It's a lifestyle that I thrive in, constantly looking for new and exciting ways to be the most creative I've ever been. I genuinely love what I do, and I think thats why I have a great relationship with my clients. I will only take on work that I’m passionate about, and you’ll see that reflected in the design and outcomes.
