I develop and translate client ideas into visual solutions. Having started off designing presentation graphics for two major investment banks, I felt I needed further visual challenges, covering a wider spectrum of material. I quit my full-time job, went travelling and my freelance career was born. I now freelance from Manchester, UK and work for a wide range of clients all over the world in various industries from Finance to Media. I also assist individuals with personal projects and create material for not-for-profit organisations. Previous projects include CD and vinyl design, corporate reports, brochures, social media, corporate identity, branding consultation, book typesetting, and digital and traditional illustration. I like to get involved with a challenge as find this the best way to enhance my existing skills. Ethics, reliability and communication are my three core areas of delivery. I guarantee a response within one working day and I am available pretty much 24/7 with a bit of notice of instead of reaching for the panic button, drop me a message instead! Great communication - you can be assured of a quick response and regular updates as to the progress of your job. I'm happy to communicate via email, by phone, Skype or IM. Excellent attention to detail - years of experience working as a proofreader at two large investment banks. Professionalism - you'll never find me using images from Google, or logo-generating software, or passing off the hundreds of free templates out there as my own. You'll receive completely original work.
