A hop, skip and jump through the world of design.

After studying Graphic Design at Northumbria University, my first role took me to the wonderful Northern Print studios in Newcastle's Ouseburn. After a hop to publishing house Living North, a skip to web design and development with SaaS provider Sage and rather large jump into freelance and two years in New Zealand, it's safe to say I've worked my way around the (design) world. It's provided a well rounded, insightful look into a variety of businesses, cultures and contracts.
