Born and raised in the south-west of England I grew up with the sounds of printing presses and the smell of ink. My father, grand-father and great-grandfather were all printers and it was little surprise that I followed a similar career path. With over 25 years experience in the print and design industry my skills have been honed from working in advertising agencies, publishing houses and brand studios in both Australia and the UK. With a solid grounding in artwork and print design in leading regional UK studios, I moved to Australia in 2002 and took up the role of Art Director for a leading publishing house where I was responsible for creating new and innovative publications whilst heading up, and shaping, the design team. I have also been employed as Senior Designer at two of the Gold Coast’s leading brand studios where I have continued to hone my skills and my passion for graphic design. DISCLAIMER
