I’m an experienced freelance graphic designer with over 20 years in the industry. My recent work has focused on sustainability and the green economy, delivering branding, logos, brochures, and digital campaigns for a wide range of clients. I combine a strong eye for typography and layout with hands-on expertise in Adobe Creative Cloud to craft visuals that tell a brand’s story and drive results. I specialise in building brand identity from the ground up, with a focus on consistency across channels. I also offer photography and drone imagery to add a personal, authentic touch to websites and social media, particularly for Poole and its surrounding area.
