Skills
I'm offering
With over 20 years agency experience working as a creative designer and studio manager, I'm what you could probably call an 'all rounder'. I'm equally as comfortable pitching ideas as I am designing a poster, creating or developing a brand, artworking files for repro or managing a media campaign to tight deadlines.
Whether collaborating as part of a flock or flying solo, I love to design. That's it. Ask me to design something for you. You will make me happy.
