I’m an award-winning senior graphic and textile designer with over fifteen years of experience in creative print production. I believe that truly exceptional design relies as much on the integrity of the process as it does on the beauty of the final outcome. Driven by a persistent curiosity, I approach every technical challenge as an opportunity for discovery. This mindset allows me to solve complex production problems while leading workshops and courses that help others uncover the same rigour and joy in the design process. I’m currently the production manager and design lead for a high-end British interior textile brand alongside my work as a digital print specialist for a leading local graphic and print service. I’m also a freelance design educator for the V&A Dundee and lead Zitozza, my own brand of hand block printed homewares. I specialise in overseeing the entire production lifecycle - navigating the complexities from the initial concept to the finished, delivered product. If you are looking for a partner with this blend of creative vision and operational management expertise, please do get in touch.
