I am a graphic designer, art director and illustrator with over 17 years experience in advertising, experiential and publishing. I have always been fascinated by new ways to engage with people and my experience has given me a well rounded view of the creative industry. Beginning my career as a creative in an experiential agency gave me a good grounding in creative problem solving and I formed a good understanding of how to engage with people. Then working in publishing strengthened my understanding of design principals and production. Freelancing really diversified my skillset and working in advertising for the last 10 years has given me exposure to my biggest projects to date. I have produced award winning campaigns, updated global brands, and worked with some of the most talented people in the industry.
