About

A few years back I got an opportunity to freelance on a project and I just kept going

Experience
I am a graphic designer from Northern Ireland and have been freelancing since 2007.

My journey began in 1996 when I achieved a GNVQ in Art and Design. From 1997–1998, I studied Business, Leadership and Ethics at Martin College (now part of the University of Tennessee). I then went on to study Graphic Design at Blackpool & The Fylde College (Lancaster University), where I completed an HND in Graphic Design, followed by a BA (Hons) Degree between 1999 and 2001.

During my studies, I completed an industrial placement in Nashville with Higgins Advertising. A few years later, I undertook a similar placement with Burson-Marsteller in London (now Burson Cohn & Wolfe).

After graduating in 2001, I worked as a designer within an advertising agency, a pre-press artworker at two printing companies, and at a local branding consultancy, gaining valuable experience across design, print, and production.

Freelance
After six years working with design and print companies, I was ready for a fresh creative challenge and moved into freelance work. I now collaborate directly with clients, building lasting relationships and guiding them towards clear, effective, and innovative solutions.

My expertise covers both large and small format print, including books, magazines, logos, banners, and more. Every project is unique, and I always provide clear quotes upfront. Supported by a trusted network of top-class printers, I ensure quality and efficiency at every stage.
Purpose
My purpose is to deliver exceptional design that not only meets but exceeds my clients’ expectations. I thrive on crafting inspiring and imaginative outcomes that leave a lasting impression, turning ordinary ideas into extraordinary designs.
Aim
My aim has always been to provide an effective and creative design service. My portfolio mainly consists of work with schools, churches, youth groups, charities, historical organisations, and individuals. I pride myself on being approachable, patient, and welcoming, building strong and positive working relationships with every client.
