With a feminine, Nineties-inspired aesthetic and a

portfolio of unusual lookbooks, this young graphic


designer is set to go far, whether in her natural habitat of
the fashion industry or beyond.

GRAFIK
MAGAZINE

With a focus on Branding Design, Editorial Design and


Fashion, I feel my style of work is a mix of feminine visuals
combined with collage, vinyl and typography - creating an
eclectic, diverse and engaging aesthetic.
I am currently carrying out commissioned work with clients
in Florida and Kuwait, whilst being employed as a Junior
Graphic Designer at Anderson Advertising & Marketing
and completing the remainder of my degree.
I was also short listed for The Apprentice 2015.
