Skills Summary My design practice has a focus on image design, working with type and image, hand drawn or digital illustration. My work is predominately produced for print and so the final presentation of a piece, including the use of print finishes, is an important aspect of my design. The work I create and apply my imagery to has a strong focus on branding, as well as packaging and editorial. I am also interested in website design. I am well organised, enthusiastic, determined and reliable. I am driven by problem solving and creating interesting, innovative concepts to make my work stand out. I enjoy reading magazines such as Computer Arts, lo oking at design inspiration blogs, and especially like visiting exhibitions.

The Future Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. Mahatma Gandhi I am always lo oking to learn new skills as I strive for personal development. I enjoy the work I do, especially being around other designers in a creative environment so would love to work in a fun and busy design studio where I can learn from others and work on exciting projects.
