2. I’m a crafty creative. A free-thinker, and I love a good cup of tea.
Graduating in 2004 With a 2:1 in Graphic Design, I quickly found my
inventive Illustrative style weaving it’s way to Milly Green Designs, where I
currently head the design team as their Senior Designer, reporting directing
to Creative Director, Milly.
I am proud to be highly versatile in my design style, designing for a range of
clients including M&S, Next, Mothercare, Primark, John Lewis and Not on
the High Streets amongst others.
Fully capable in a variety of design disciplines with strong communication
skills. I’m able to think fast, and create effective decisive solutions with an
excellent creative eye for detail.
I have a strong skills set ranging from artistic freehand, to exceptional
knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite, to a sound understanding of marketing
strategy and Character Branding. Firm grasp on current trends and a trail
blazer for blue sky free thinking.
Confident and competent to present in top level meetings, I have a positive
attitude and take a great deal of personal pride in my work. Ensuring the
very best outcome to a brief is part of the buzz and the LOVE!
