I’m a midweight Graphic Designer, working at 400 Communications, a London-based brand communications agency. I spend most of my time creating and working within design systems, particularly with typography, layout, and all the details in between. I’ve worked with brands large and small on projects across print, web, and some product. I am very comfortable working in a direct client to designer role and building rapport with said clients is a really enjoyable part of my job.
In the past, I’ve enjoyed worked with numerous organisations including the World Health Organisation (WHO), United Nations Finance Climate Change Committee (UNFCCC), London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG/LSEG), the Royal Horticultural Society, Barnes RFC Women, and Mahogany Opera Group.
I studied at the University of Lincoln on their BA (Hons) Graphic Design programme and have been working in the design industry for over 7 years.
