Design services
supporting businesses, consultants and agencies with creative design for print and digital distribution
30 years of design precision with creative connection.
I’m a Senior Creative and Design Strategist with three decades of experience navigating the space where strategic creativity meets compelling visual storytelling.
In a world of fragmented trends and brand noise, I specialise in finding the Golden Thread that connects brands with their vision and their audiences too. My approach is rooted in the belief that great design isn't just a pretty veneer, it’s the architectural system upon which creative intention can truly perform.
I don't just help brands function. I help them dazzle.
Need a designer on hand?
Sometimes you don't need a big project, you just need someone who knows your brand and can turn things around quickly. I offer flexible design support for existing clients, so there's always a familiar pair of hands when you need them.
We can agree an hourly rate with no contract and no monthly commitment – just good work, when you need it.
Or if you'd prefer the predictability of a regular arrangement, we can explore a retainer, if that's what works best for you.
Industry Experience
Public Sector
In association with professional communication consultants, I have established trusted working partnerships to create a variety of projects and deliverables for clients in local authority and healthcare organisations.
Charities
I have worked with both local and national charities on a range of campaign and project types, and understanding the needs and challenges of specific stakeholder audiences is crucial in creating designs that perform effectively within specific time, budgetry and regulatory requirements.
Local Businesses
Supporting independent and family run companies, I love to champion people who ARE their business with creative design solutions to help them share their magic with the world. As the design world continues to evolve, I can create 'done for you’ designs in Adobe Creative Cloud or ‘done with you’ designs in Canva for clients to take forward into their business.
Publishing
Coming from a heritage of magazine publishing, my experience spans niche trade journals to major consumer titles. I find great joy in the world of print and there’s nothing I love more than diving into a flatplan and working through technical specs, bleed and crop marks to ensure a flawless finished product.
