Jasmine O'Dell

I was lucky enough to work in James' team for 3 years at bandstand. James is an excellent leader, mentor, design-extraordinaire and all-round positive presence in the studio. He always found the time to discuss ideas and give constructive feedback, whilst giving his team members the freedom to speak their minds and make creative decisions. Not to mention, every piece of work he produces is carefully considered and meticulously refined. I hope to work with him again in the future!

James is a passionate, creative thinker with an approach to design that is strategic and insightful. An incredibly talented designer, with the keenest eye for detail, he has taught me a lot over the years. As a mentor, he is generous, thoughtful and always inspiring others to keep building, refining and crafting. During the five years that I worked with James, he built and led a strong and dedicated team of designers and creatives that are unafraid to push boundaries and always willing to pull together! An asset to any team and a wonderful friend!
