I design for numerous platforms apposite to the concept best relating to my design problem. I specialise in the utilisation of pertinent research to facilitate strategy through graphic design and visual communication. I have a fascination with human behavioural science and how I can apply communication and education through simple, clever design. I am proud to have become an award winning, published graphic designer since graduating.
I design for many businesses and charities, all with inspiring success stories from our projects together. This includes numerous design and innovation agencies in London, New York, France and Cornwall, with clients such as Falmouth University, Amnesty International, Control Arms, United Nations, ITER, BT, NHS, Shelterbox, Cadbury, Google, Carphone Warehouse and Hewlett Packard.

I did a placement at Nixon Design Cornwall in graphic design over the summer between my second and third year in my BA (hons) degree. I found this a massive eye opener to the industry and its fast pace process. I found working as team a lot of fun and inspirationally satisfying.

I found this job very interesting and my passion for photography has only grown stronger ever since. My passion for attention to detail with photography and optical / digital editing started here. I edited photographs using software and occasionally optically in the traditional manner using a dark room. Unfortunately this job was seasonal due to the main client being school/university pupil photography.

I started a modern apprenticeship as traditional silk screen printer just after I left college. I loved the aesthetics of real ink and beautiful stock. I feel this position has given me my hunger for a perfect print finish on all my designs. I found traditional silk screen is so pleasing in so many ways.

When I worked as silk screen printer I was appointed the company's art-worker and graphics artist. This entailed redrawing all the print work that came in to a superior standard that could be printed. Silk screen printing requires you to draw every single colour layer to a hairline in precision, this is where my thorough attention to detail grew. I still apply this passion to my current designs and art-working for all types of application.

As I finished school I did work experience with a designer and hand rendering signmaker. This opened my eyes to the use of paint and the beauty of brush applied art work. I really enjoyed the aesthetics of hand rendered graphics and the freedom away from a screen. I will always continue to pursue the pleasure of free hand graphics and artwork.

“I had the privilege of being one of Jaye's tutors at University. His intelligence and inquiring mind were ever-present, in discussion and in his work, which made tutorial discussions into a stimulating and lively exchange. He also maintains a demanding work ethic, evident in his prolific studio practice”
