I have been working full time as a graphic designer for 9 years. I have a passion for design which which has allowed me to develop my skills to cover a range of disciplines, including design for print (branding, stationery, brochures, packaging etc), and website design.

Along with the hands-on graphic design, I regularly direct photoshoots and design and organise exhibition stands. I also have a good understanding in the practices involved in search engine optimisation (both naturally and pay-per-click) and on-line marketing.
I am just as happy working alone or alongside other designers in a team. I also have experience with managing junior designers.
I am a keen photographer, and I also enjoy creating illustrations using my beloved Wacom graphics tablet. When I have the time I am an exclusive illustration and photography contributor to iStockphoto.com.
I can confidently use all the major software packages for image creation, manipulation and artworking. I can create websites using HTML, Flash and can program database driven websites which are powered by php/MySQL.
I can work on both Mac and PC, but generally work on Mac.
Outside of design I have a love for snowboarding, traveling, music and movies, which are often my sources of inspiration and escape!
