Creative Director/Freelancer

Creative & Design

With 8 years experience as a proactive, driven and hard working designer I have effectively worked solo and within great design teams to create compelling advertising campaigns, clean modern UI/UX while staying up to date on what the consumer/user wants to see and approaching each new project with fresh eyes and ideas. I enjoy being involved in the complete process from initial brainstorming to final deliverable. To see a tangible end product, whether in digital or print is what drives me to create better designs and push myself to another level with each project.
