WELCOME
Having worked in London designing
for 7 years I have experienced many
facets of the design industry, working
along side some very skilled design,
strategy and business talent.
I began in packaging and also worked
with innovation and strategy teams
learning the social theories behind
design and how to bring brands
not only out of the past into the
present, but pushing their future
potential too.
Then I learned more about the graphical
language of identity, logo design and
positioning as well as design for
both premium and FMCG brands.
I am a creative designer of structural,
print and event design
