While freelancing, I have managed to work for some amazing companies, with my experience and knowledge I have adapted to what is required with ease and flexible to work around their needs.

At Nteractive my role was to produce all the digital sponsorship communications for Microsoft Global Events which include: 2 Global events (30 Countries), 4 Industry events and 7 flagship events with over 250K attendees. Informing sponsors of the opportunities for pre event, the event and post event. Communications include: Sponsorship website, Social media, Email announcements, Online newsletters and Interactive guides. Dealing with the high volume of work at a fast pace and liaising with Seattle on a daily basis which I loved and thrived on.

I have worn many creative hats over five exciting years at Article Ten, acting variously as Senior Designer, Design Lead and Art Director. Often taking a mentorship role for junior designers, I have taken the lead across projects, covering everything from branding and social media to UI and presentations design. Role highlights include answering the question “how do you brand an entire city?” for Aarhus and pushing boundary after creative boundary with the European Training Foundation.

In this varied role, I was responsible for running with an intriguing mix of digital, event and print projects. I learnt a lot about the ins and outs of the production process, producing concepts through to artwork and liaising with both clients and suppliers. The ability to prioritise and manage time was crucial in this fast-paced environment, and I accepted the challenge gladly. Clients I worked across include FIFA, Burgess Superyachts and The Ledbury.

At this brand communications agency, my role was to manage the design studio and assign jobs to team members. I had a lot of responsibilities, from taking client briefings to working on conceptional ideas to art directing designers. Job and time management, sourcing external suppliers and budgeting are all skills I cultivated to ensure only the best results for both client and agency. Clients I worked across include BP, BP Solar, ISG and Sonae Sierra.
