I love everything creative and enjoy bringing a variety of media to my design practice, whether that be needlework and illustration or animation and UI design. I have many creative hobbies that often lend themselves to my process, but aside from that I enjoy cooking, reading and film. I’m at my happiest when the sun is out and I’m swimming in the sea, camping, or even just going on a nice long walk with my dog. Throughout university, I rediscovered an ambition and a desire to learn that will follow me throughout my life, so far even leading me to gaining an ISTD Membership. I’ve also found a love for helping others and working within a tight knit group of designers. My experience has taught me a lot about the type of person I want to be: organised, calm, and efficient - but also kind, empathetic, and respectful; qualities that will enhance my abilities as a designer.
