Career
My creative journey began in 2004.
-
My first role was in a design agency where I spent nearly five years. This initial introduction into design allowed me to explore, gain knowledge and experience in many parts of design - from logos, physical media to digital assets (stationery, web visuals to signage, livery and apparel).
-
From there I was a in-house creative for a multi-venue Arts organisation (for eight years).
-
Then I became a one-man design team for a hospitality and leisure company for 2 years.
-
Then the design lead at a marketing agency for a further 2 years.
Within each role learning, adapting and being the visual go-to man. Creating all digital and print assets and solving visual dilemmas, catering for various demographics and audiences. If you'd like to know more of my experiences and design adventure to where I am now, drop me an email.
Logos
Throughout my career logo design and visual brand assets have always ignited my creativity and been my bedrock and comfortable place.
I'm passionate about logo design, construction, meaning and visual articulation. When creating something new I strive to deliver innovative, creative solutions using insights to create smart outcomes, as such every project is handled with care, attention and respect.
Home life
I’m a husband and very proud father. When I’m not at my laptop, you’ll often find me playing with my beautiful daughter, walking our dog (a boisterous springer spaniel) on the South Downs or along the beach, or getting my sketch pad out and having a good doodle.
I also have a passion for board games, playing plus designing and creating.
Also I make a great cuppa.
