I spent two years after graduation working at Firecrest Clinical, a CRO in Limerick, as a member of their internal design team. One of my biggest contriubtions in my time there was the completion of a full suite of illustrations for a new web-based product roll-out. It called for a simple style, using a limited colour palette, so that new illustrations could be created to fit tight deadlines. This suite is still being used and expanded upon in Firecrest, using a style guide that I wrote. 

 

Other projects during my time here included icon design, basic UX layouts and extensive amounts of animation using Flash, as one of two/three designers on a team also comprising of pharmacologists and medical subject-matter-experts. In this role I learned a lot about working on a team and meeting tight deadlines.
