Brief Summary

When I left University, I helped set up a music & fashion magazine, called Disorder. I was in charge of art direction and design. Disorder was sold internationally and we made some exciting issues.

I left Disorder in 2006 and freelanced on a wide range of different projects. These included an album cover for Setanta Records, and two vinyl single covers. I also created promotional material for a Japanese electronic music tour called It Came from Japan.

In the middle of 2007 I was offered a graphic design post at Lewisham College, as part of a design team. The work involved doing a wide range of corporate promotional material for the college. Such as posters, flyers, animated gifs, interactive PDFs, adverts for magazines and newspapers, brochure and magazine design, logos, and branding. Our design team had a wide range of courses and departments to cover.

September 2010 I started a new design job in Malmö Sweden, at a company called Gert Strand AB. Gert Strand sell many different products internationally. My work includes all areas of design (label and package design, logo design, catalogue templates, liaising with programmers, product photography, image correction in photoshop and internet blogging).

Now in 2011 I am currently involved with a digital magazine called Uppror. This is a music, fashion, film, and photography magazine. Uppror was originally released in PDF format, but recently we have created an iPAD App which we released in the iTunes store in February.

I am used to multitasking many different projects at the same time, working to tight deadlines and working in a busy enviroment.
