Me, Myself, I
I’m a freelance graphic designer and web content designer and editor, living in the beautiful North Downs of Kent.
After spending the customary four years at Art College, I worked for 13 years at Country Living Magazine, published by Hearst, in London. There, I did every job in the art department – from Picture Researcher all the way up to Acting Art Director – and in doing so I learnt many key design skills: how to transform words and pictures into something clear and informative for the consumer to understand, how to select good pictures, and how to work efficiently. I also styled for many magazine photo-shoots and did some feature writing – something I enjoyed very much. Being around good sub-editors for so long also honed my editing skills, which are frequently used when designing and creating.
Since becoming freelance I’ve kept busy with a mixture of graphic design, web content design and editing, and creating digital newsletters.
My design philosophy is good design at a fair price.
