I’m a versatile Graphic Designer who specialises in editorial and print design. Over the past three years, studying Design for Publishing I have developed skills within the Adobe Creative Suite Software (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop etc.) as well as typography, page layouts and art direction. Alongside my university work, I have continued to develop my image making skills with: photography, painting, and illustration, through commissions/self-initiated work, which round out my design abilities.

Research influences my work in a way that I pay close attention to the small details that I can incorporate into my designs, which further engages the audience when they spot these easter eggs. I have a particular interest in book covers and identity work, with a focus on print design. I love exploring materiality/physicality within my designs shown through my experimentations using different processes, such as laser cutting and paint prints, to create interesting and approachable designs.
