Hi, I'm a graphic designer, illustrator and art director. I've spent the past few years working within the wellness industry at Wild Nutrition, where I led the redesign and campaign for their children's gummies range, which went on to be stocked in Harrods. During my time there I led creative across different channels, from paid ads, email and organic social to retail. I also have just returned from travelling and am now looking for my next project. I would love to see where you're at with your packaging design and give it a fresh perspective. Portfolio is linked in my CV. Please give it a moment to load as it contains video. Would love to chat more about your exciting new venture. All the best, Yve
