I am a reliable, experienced book designer and artworker.
I specialise in books but I am an all-rounder and have a great deal of experience in print. I am experienced designing book covers, fully illustrated book interiors and also marketing material including book catalogues. I have art direction experience, including organising photo-shoots.
I have worked in publishing since 2007, working in-house both full and part-time. I am also able to work on projects from home and have done so for Granta, Egmont, Little Brown and Penguin.
I have a degree in Typography and Graphic Communication from Reading University, graduating with a 2:1 in 1998.
