Available to hire
I’m a Glasgow-based graphic designer with over 25 years of experience delivering high-quality, brand-aligned design across print and digital media. I thrive on turning briefs into visually engaging solutions on tight deadlines, working across Apple and PC platforms, with a strong command of Adobe Creative Cloud.
From freelance projects to in-house roles at organisations like Quarriers and East Ayrshire Leisure, I approach every project with a meticulous eye for detail and a collaborative spirit. I enjoy helping organisations upgrade their branding and present information in accessible, eye-catching ways.
