Fine Art, Graphic Communications & Business
A mutidisciplinary designer specialising in creating unique designs while looking to communicate an awesome idea at the heart of a project. Interests in illustration, advertising, branding and publishing design with a desire to work on charity/NGOs & emerging technology projects.
Alongside Graphic Design skills, I spend time creating commission paintings on skateboards and bespoke instruments as well as delving into writing short stories & poems, often pairing them with illustrations.
Over the years, I have thoroughly enjoyed working behind bars of all kinds including Sundown Festival, local beer festivals and large Oktoberfest events. This has required me to adapt quickly, work efficiently in everchanging teams and work well under the pressure of high volumes of clientele. Being a Bar supervisor allowed me to gain skills in people management and client relations within a busy working environment.
My love of the sea has motivated me to gain sailing qualifications over the years. The skills from these have transferred to other aspects of my life including communication, observation and self-motivation. I also adore practising yoga and mindfullness which helps to balance my mind. This makes teaching others my yoga practice fulfilling and joyful and I would be happy to bring lunchtime yoga into the office with me!
