About me

I’m a freelance designer with a background in publishing and marketing, and a passion for using design to drive change. I wear many creative hats, designing identities, websites, campaigns, inographics, reports and other publications for brands, non-profits, publishers and start-ups.

I have been a regular in-house freelancer at several leading UK publishers, designing and artworking illustrated books and marketing collateral, leading multiple projects from concept to publication. I'm used to both working with established brand identities and bringing fresh concepts to life and love collaborating with in-house editorial and sales teams as well as freelance illustrators, photographers, printers and other suppliers.

I've also been a freelance design lead at POMOC – a UK migrants' rights non-profit bridging direct service, political education, campaigning, and creative events. I've been looking after their online presence and designing event graphics, educational infographics, printed publications and various other print and digital collateral to support their creative campaigns.

What am I looking for

I'd love to help budding non-profits establish or refresh their visual identities or web presence, as well as creating print and digital materials for key campaigns or live events. I'm used to working with multilingual content, creating fun and informative materials for young audiences, and working both independently and collaboratively. I've also enjoyed helping with in-person creative events or creative focus groups.
