Employment

June 2015 - Present: Freelance Designer

Working on a variety of community, personal and commercial design projects.

February 2011 - June 2015: Senior Designer at Gage Networks

As the in-house designer at this tech start-up, I created all the styling and material that led to the development and promotion of its software.

May 2008 - Sep 2010: Senior Designer at Thomas Cook
With Thomas Cook’s many sub-brands, my first senior graphics role taught me the value of brand guidelines and how to both implement and create them.
Oct 2005 - Jun 2007: Graphic Designer at Redberry Digital

My first graphics job out of University. I landed on my feet by working for an agency with contracts for large charities and Universal Pictures. I worked on movies such as Elizabeth The Golden Age, Mr Bean’s Holiday, Hot Fuzz, Smokin’ Aces and Atonement. My main learnings were around the refinement of a design by removing rather than adding.

Oct 2002 - Jun 2004: Graphic Designer at Screwfix Direct

During University I worked as a Graphic Designer on the Catalogue production team. I learnt a lot about alignment and layout.
