About
I am a designer and front-end developer with over 5 years experience in a professional studio environment. I have a keen eye for typography, developing this by specialising in Typography and Editorial design as a design student. Over the last decade I have invested in the web, falling in love with its cascade of puzzle pieces. I have passionately developed my skills from a hobbyist with HTML and CSS to confidently delivering complicated, dynamic projects professionally.
I am a dedicated lifelong-learner most comfortable when I am pushing my understanding and applying new knowledge professionally, creatively and personally.
I am currently a designer at Curious12 in the heart of County Durham, Bishop Auckland. Here I am part of a small studio with a big reputation in the area.

G.S.W. Roofing2011–2018
Nothing at all to do with design. Working with my Dad, ‘passing, reaching and fetching,’ all over the North-East is one of the proudest parts of my working career. He taught me to work hard, talk to people & most of all — have a sense of humour.
