I'm offering
I am just starting out with Worksome, the dream is to grow my freelance business so I can stop travelling to London everyday!
I have worked professionally in fully integrated advertising agencies and smaller design agencies for the last 18 years. Working up to my current position as Studio Manager I have gained valuable experience across multiple design disciplines including:
Advertising (Press and Out Of Home)
Logo Design
Brochure Design
Packaging
Retouching
Visualising
Artwork and Production
I have been lucky enough to work with some amazing clients such as, Cadbury, Canon, Compare the Market, O2, Macmillan and No.3 Gin. I am meticulous in what I do and know what it takes to work on faced paced briefs large and small. I have a keen eye for design and layout, I'm calm under pressure and know that communication is key to ensure a smooth design and production process.
