personal information
Born in England - 07.02..1992
Moved to Copenhagen - 09.07.2005
I am a graphic designer interested in branding & identity, packaging, web and editorial design, particularly for not for profit and charity organisations. I am also hugely interested in culture, language and travel and these themes appear throughout my work.
Worked in South Africa - June/July 2007
Worked in Uganda - August/September 2013
I am currently based in Leeds, United Kingdom but as I consider myself to be an international kid, I aim to work all over the world.
Studying in Leeds, England - 2010 - 2014
Having grown up in an international environment, I feed off not only different cultures but also working with and learning from others. I see collaboration as an essential part of the design process and I think every single person has different skills to contribute.

It still fascinates me that design can be used to give someone or something an identity and for me the most rewarding aspect of design is successfully managing to represent an identity across the necessary platforms.
Copywriting
Photography
Web & Applications
Throughout my university education, I have developed this interest in creating brands and identities and then applying them across different print and digital products, such as editorial, web and mobile applications, packaging and advertising, and I have had the technical training to produce websites
