I’m Alex, a Graphic Designer from Sheffield who blends original, personality-driven ideas with strong graphic and illustration skills to create work that stands out. I bring a mix of team and solo experience across a digital-first, ever-evolving creative industry.
I’ve worked on brand identity, typography, print distribution, editorials, posters, and client-led design projects. With experience covering everything from briefing through to final artwork (and coordinating print production), I help deliver clear, effective communication across both physical and digital channels.
