ABOUT ME
CLIENT
PORTFOLIO
I have had the pleasure of working with many established brands. This has enabled me to adapt to different styles, ways of thinking and challenged me into taking on different approaches when it comes to output. Each client has strengthened my knowledge whether it be scamping for a whole new concept, brand guidelines, toolkits to supply to other agencies or animation work when dealing with digital aspects. I enjoy the challenges each client brings and find satisfaction in diverse solutions.
