23 | Graphic Designer | London | San Francisco

Hey, how’re you doing?

This is me.

In 2010 I graduated from Ravensbourne College as a graphic designer.

I also won an ISTD and a D&AD Best New Blood Award.

I’m currently working as a designer at top London agency Yellow Door, creating advertising material and making retail experiences beautiful, in real space, as well as using digital technology and print media.

I’m hungry for freelance projects in web design, UX, visual communication — anything that I can use as a step to transfer my skills into the internet industry. I know some basic code, continuously learning more!

Email me and I’ll send you some of my recent work.

Cigarettiquette [.tumblr.com]

Massively unethical typographic promotion of how smoking makes you awesome.

Unapologetically garish typographic posters/cards about typefaces which I designed just to brighten up the studio once we handed in our degree projects.

Plastic Lasercut Jewellery. Yeah it’s been done. But not with the type geek edge.

‘EXPOSE’ Magazine

‘Gilded Youth’ is the highly-acclaimed menswear collection from Tom Crisp, winner of Graduate Fashion Week 2010. As a personal friend I featured his work in ‘Expose’ and he asked me to art-direct his portfolio, which was subsequently nominated for Best In Show.

I love experimenting with finishes, paper stocks and layering.

Especially in book form.

‘EXPOSE’ Magazine

—

A project I designed, wrote and about 80% photographed…

I designed this piece on fine artist Tom Duma based on his love for art, music, masks and things that are not quite as they seem. Every article I wrote for Expose is art-directed according to the nature of the person telling the tale and, hopefully, it tells a bit about them.
