As creative director of a small design agency I oversee all creative output. We have a diverse range of clients with an equally diverse range of needs, so find myself switching between many aspects of design on an almost daily basis. Managing this creative output involves managing my own time, my team members, freelancers and suppliers. Offering design for both print and the web, branding, marketing solutions, print management and search engine optimisation - the workload is varied and each requires a different approach.Our clients range from local companies (Gamidor, Cloud9 Accounting) and Oxford's oldest and newest colleges (University College and Kellogg) to national brands (RoyScot Larch, Safeclean).

AHA is a pharmaceutical and health care marketing agency. During my time with the company I designed artwork for blue chip clients such as Boots, GSK, Pfizer, Bayer and Lloyds Pharmacy.I was an instrumental part of AHA ’s growth and diversification into football merchandising. This meant I was dealing with international football clubs (Manchester United, Chelsea, Celtic) on a daily basis, designing marketing materials, packaging and advertisements for their high-end range of art products.This frequently involved creating a ‘brand within a brand’ as the high price point of the art products we produced meant the clubs were selling to a completely new type of customer.

Inform were one of my suppliers when I worked at CABI Publishing. The work that I had put through Inform had caught the eye of the managing director and when a position opened up, they contacted me to see if I was interested. At the time Inform were the UK’s largest digital printers with 7 digital presses in 3 locations.

CABI is a scientific and bio-science publisher and I was the sole graphic designer for an organisation with in excess of 300 employees. As a first job straight out of college this proved to be a fantastic stepping stone in my career.
