PROFILE I am an out going and confident individual, with a passion for creative, forwardthinking, yet user friendly design. I work well on my own and as a member of a team. I enjoy working to a deadline and always put in the extra hours to complete the project to the highest standard. I am a sociable and engaging person, who is calm under pressure and takes responsibility. I am looking for a job that challenges me and enables me to grow and learn as a designer in the commercial sector, following projects from concept to completion.
