As a creative professional with over a decade of experience, I specialise in transforming ideas into impactful visual stories. Highly skilled across the Adobe Creative Suite, I’ve produced everything from striking illustrations, infographics, and logos to full-scale branding, UI/UX design, and print assets that leave a lasting impression.

My passion for innovation drives me to constantly evolve — expanding my craft into 3D design, 2D animation, print media, and social content creation to deliver dynamic and future-ready designs.

Combining my artistic vision with cutting-edge technology, including AI tools, I create original concepts and bespoke art pieces that have reached audiences worldwide. Alongside this, my enthusiasm for web design allows me to build elegant, high-performing websites that balance creativity with functionality.

In every project, I strive to craft designs that not only look exceptional — but connect, communicate, and inspire.

A Few Words About Me

I’m a creative and versatile graphic designer with strong expertise across digital, web, and print design — producing impactful branding, social media content, and marketing collateral that enhance brand presence both online and offline. This naturally ties into my second core strength: marketing strategy, where I specialise in on-page SEO and campaign creation. By combining design and marketing insight, I craft visuals and strategies that don’t just look great — they perform, driving visibility, engagement, and lasting results.

At the heart of it all is my artistic mindset, which knows no bounds — allowing me to approach every project with originality, emotion, and a limitless creative perspective.

Latest Experience

In my most recent job roles, I have created graphics for both digital and print media.

Utilising InDesign for brochure compiling and design, layout, articles, flyers, menus, leaflets and posters. By extension, this requires me to create the assets using Photoshop, Illustrator, Dimensions and Procreate.

Having been praised for my creativity coupled with my talent in hand lettering, typography and calligraphy, my unique skills from being an artist have massively enhanced my digital design skills.

KPI Recruiting

Senior Graphic/Web Designer & Marketer

As the inaugural graphic designer at KPI, I undertook the crucial task of revitalising and strengthening the newly initiated branding strategy. My journey began with enhancing all social media platforms and client-facing materials, including brochures and web designs.

The impact was immediate and profound – heightened client interaction and increased online engagement became the norm, signalling the success of our revamped approach. Building on this momentum, I focused on overhauling and updating in-house documents to align with the new brand guidelines, significantly aiding recruiters in client meetings.

My role has since evolved to encompass the curation of specialised media for directors and senior consultants, catering to client meetings and facilitating large print orders. Additionally, I spearhead the creation of materials for all events, job fairs, and exhibitions, ensuring a cohesive and compelling brand presence. Notably, I am responsible for crafting the visual and aesthetic elements across our seven office locations throughout the UK, contributing to a unified and dynamic workspace environment.

Moreover, by revamping outdated assets and enhancing quality, we extended our reach through effective web and email marketing campaigns.

Due to the recognition of my accomplishments, my responsibilities expanded to include managing the web development team.
