Hello!  I am a designer with over a year's experience in industry.  I worked on the 2023 Official Crufts merchandise and enjoy making appealing assets for products.  I have had training in Wilcom embroidery software and have used Adobe for years. 

I am used to being organised in a fast paced environment in order to meet multiple deadlines every day. Considering numerous designs based on size, number of colours and small text I work out how one design can be printed on various merchandise.  I did this when I was responsible for designing Essential Embroidery’s 25 Year Anniversary invitation, banners and branded goodies.  As well as designs for garments I have worked on the Christmas holiday email notice and PowerPoint presentations.  We corresponded with our overseas colleagues via Teams, the communication method used for video calls with lecturers during my uni days.  By using my articulate, friendly and polite way of communicating including excellent writing skills which won Top Dissertation of the Year Award at university, I am able to understand a client’s needs and respond to them.
