About me

I started my design career in the Store marketing team at PlayStation in London. After five years and many pretty cool projects later, I moved on both from my Senior Designer position and the city life, when I had my first baby, to have a quieter life in Oxfordshire. My son did not get the memo about “quiet” though, and my life is as chaotic as ever, but it’s also exactly where I feel I want to be!

The variety of the work is what I love about freelancing, and I bring my full focus and enthusiasm to any project I work on. I apply strong design foundations and principles to your project in a result-oriented way, asking each client detailed questions about their brand goals and “whys” before I touch any design software.

Outside of work, my hobbies include country walks, sketching, and video/tabletop games alongside a nice coffee ☕
