Tydal Canon
Graphic Designer
Bettystown, IrelandA professional graphic designer with over twenty years experience, I specialise in print design, brand identity and front-end digital design. I've led design projects for blue-chip companies, trade shows, museum exhibits and SMEs. Some clients I've worked with include The Smithsonian Institution, IBM, Trinity College, Medicines Sans Frontiers and Nissan. I am accustomed with working to tight deadlines. I prefer personable, informal relationships with my clients and I'm just as capable working on my own as I am within a team.
