I’m a senior level art director, graphic designer, author and university lecturer.
I work with clients in the arts, culture and publishing industries, to help them connect with their audience and develop lasting relationships. I do this by directing bespoke print magazines, books, publications, branding and create content for digital platforms.
My career started as a graphic designer and art director in the prestigious lifestyle magazine industry, including Sleazenation, The Independent on Saturday Magazine and Esquire UK.
This work experience provided me with the knowledge to develop a successful freelance graphic design career. Freelance projects included art directing the launch of bespoke consumer magazines, designing visual culture books, style magazines, developing lifestyle websites, branding and working with luxury lifestyle brands.
I have since authored and art directed two visual culture books, which are published by Thames & Hudson. My first title 'Collector's Edition' is a hardback book that celebrates the new wave of limited, deluxe, special edition graphic design created for the music, book and magazine industries.
I followed up the success of my first title by authoring and art directing MIN: The New Simplicity in Graphic Design, the first thorough look at this rebirth of simplicity in graphic design. The book showcases global minimalist designers, working across a wide range of formats and media, which are interspersed with exclusive interviews and essays.
My work regularly features in graphic design and culture publications and blogs and has been included on It's Nice That, AIGA Eye, Creative Boom, Pitchfork, BBC, Wired, Print, Varoom, Creative Review, Eye, Computer Arts, Laurence King and Harper Collins.
