Hello there. Here's a bit about me.
I’m currently employed as a Senior Designer and Art Director at an award winning agency. In parallel, I also run a “one- woman- band” brand consultancy on a freelance basis.
My career began at Whitespace as a junior freelancer. Within a couple of years of my journey I was identified for my talent by the Marketing Society and was shortlisted for title of ‘Star Creative Student’ , later on as ‘Rising Creative Star’ as well as ‘Young Creative of the Year’ at the Nod awards – fantastic achievements so early on in my career.
An original thinker with determination to match, who challenges thinking at every opportunity. I’m passionate to support change through sustainable thinking and promoting equality, diversity and inclusion work.
