I came to design through ten years in marketing. That influences how I approach every project - strategy, structure, intent and audience, before we even consider the visuals.
I'm a Top Rated designer with 100% job success, specialising in multi-page print and publication design. That covers reports, whitepapers, capability statements, books, magazines, information design and long-form documents - anything where hierarchy, flow and visual clarity are doing real work!
Before the layout comes the thinking: what is the purpose, who is the audience, what do we want them to understand?
Alongside publication work I also take on brand identity, packaging and pitch decks when the brief calls for something broader.
If you've got a project coming up, message me with what you're working on. I'll let you know asap whether I'm the right fit :)
Tools: Expert in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop.
