Whilst I was there I gained a few qualifications along the way - namely 9 GCSE's, 4 A-Levels and a BTEC Diploma - Foundation Studies in Art & Design.

Since then I have worked for a London design studio for 2 and a half years as a junior designer, a legal recruitment consultancy for 3 years as their in-house designer and most recently I have spent the last 5 years working for an independant design studio in Tonbridge, Kent. In 2005 I registered myself as self-employed and have been undertaking as much freelance work as my employment commitments would allow alongside. Finally, it's time to go it alone and I am now fully freelance, although I am always open to possibilities if the right permanent opportunity arises.

The work that I have been required to produce over the years I would say has been fairly varied - from layouts and toy designs/visuals for McDonalds, to recruitment ads in the national press and also all the usual things like point-of-sale merchandising, corporate literature, exhibition displays, powerpoint presentations and of course websites. As a result, I am more than happy to undertake any form of design work from initial concept through to finished product.

Alongside my working life I have many interests and hobbies which include playing tennis for my local club, singing in a rock band, driving and modifying my car, watching films and socialising with friends... if you're interested, you can find out more about these things on myspace or look me up on Facebook.

That's it, if there's anything else you want to know then just ask me!
