I have worked as a designer in the advertising industry now for 9 years and have already seen a great deal of changes in my working world. Technology is developing in sophistication and the internet is opening up a whole new set of possibilities in marketing. It's an exciting area to be working in.
I have been lucky enough to have worked with some highly respected and talented people in the business and I have learnt loads from them. I believe that a good piece of design is all about striking the balance between understanding our clients and keeping an open mind on the possibilities visual communication has to offer us.

Hereford College Of Arts
Bachelor of Arts: 2:1
After having completed my foundation diploma, I decided to get out of London and enrol on a degree course, specialising in Illustration. Hereford College of Arts was to be the place for me, and what a fantastic three years it was. We were gifted excellent tutors such as Christopher Sharrock and Emily Mitchell who helped us find exactly what it was that we as individuals found interesting about the world. This is so important in producing illustrations that are true to you, and it's this that makes you stand out from every other Illustrator.
