FOR EVERY PROBLEM, THERE’S A CREATIVE SOLUTION.

View Resume

Both Art Director & Graphic Designer with a strong brand approach, I originate, direct and oversee effective brand identities and campaigns across multiple channels and platforms. Strategically led, I’m driven, curious, collaborative and above all enthusiastic and passionate about good design – from concept to delivery.

Over the years, I’ve picked up the odd award (some very odd) and had the opportunity to lead several creative departments. This has involved the mentoring of creative teams and individuals, as well as the day-to-day running of effective creative projects.

I don't like to brag, but I’m a bit of an expert in the core Adobe Creative Cloud applications – InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, and XD.
