I’m Michelle, a graphic designer with 15+ years of experience across small and large agencies in the UK, and also time working internationally in Australia and Canada. I’ve freelanced since returning to London in 2011, supporting a wide range of clients with brand and marketing design work—from taking briefs through to print-ready artwork and digital deliverables. What I enjoy most is conceptualising ideas and translating them into clear, effective design across many formats. My background includes agency work in London and collaborative roles abroad, along with web and digital design projects. I also bring strong communication skills and a friendly, motivated approach, which helps me work independently, bounce ideas with colleagues, and present confidently to clients.
