20+ years ago, when I graduated with a degree in graphic design, I already had a unique perspective on design. Over the years, I’ve grown through every role imaginable - from Artworker, Graphic Designer to Principal, contractor, and consultant. My work has always balanced creativity with a deep focus on customer needs, a blend that has proven invaluable throughout my career.I've had the chance to work with inspiring companies, from innovative start-ups to established blue-chip brands, enjoying both creative freedom and the ability to honour brand principles and values. At the core of my approach is an understanding of people - their thought processes, behaviours, and choices. For me, design is more than visuals; it’s about crafting experiences that make people feel seen and valued. I believe in design that’s both visually compelling and truly user-centred.At heart, I’m a people person, and I never lose sight of the importance of teamwork. And credit goes to my family, especially my “spirited” young sons, whose support keeps me grounded and energised. Every day, they inspire me to keep loving what I do.• Highly skilled in the Adobe Creative Suite• The DRUM Cream Awards finalist 2015 for Packaging Design• Becoming a Puppy Walker for Guide Dogs Charity for the Blind and Partially Sighted• Entrepreneur of the year from Centre for EnterprisePortfolio website: https://www.i-am-freelance-graphic-designer.co.uk/Client list:• Drax Plc• Next Plc• Wetherspoon• United Biscuits• Royal Collage of Paediatrics and Child health• Royal Collage of General Practitioners• British Dental Association• General Dental Council• CheeseCellar• NHS• Unison• IBMS• Wynnstay Group PLC• YMCA• Homeless Link• Piquant Sauces• Pidy UK• Lockwood Mushy Peas• Revolution Bars• Classic Cuisine• Blue Star Foods Miami (USA)Software experienceAdobe Creative Suite, InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, XD, After Effects, InVision, Figma, Frontify, SharePoint, OneDrive, Trello, Canva, Microsoft Office (Teams, Projects, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook), CMS, FTP, HTML, CSS, Trello, Harvestime, Clockify, Google Slides/Sheets, Presentations, Photography, Shopify, Wordress, Zoomla, Suitcase Fusion, SEO, PPC, Domain Management/hosting, workflow optimisation, FL Studio
