Bio
The Creative Idea
My background is in advertising as a creative (art director) but what can I add to the party you maybe thinking!
Well, to me it all comes down to the creative nuts and bolts, is it a original conceptual idea.
You’ll find below is a combination of commissioned work as a creative, also venturing in to UX design
with the case studies on Medium (see UX Design above). As well as some personal passion projects.
So brew yourself a cuppa, relax, enjoy browsing, and get in touch with any questions.
