  I lead a variety of high-value digital & print campaigns from concept creation, through to final delivery and enjoy every stage of the process. I’m particularly confident within the ideation phase and enjoy working with other team members to help them reach their full potential whilst also ensuring the creative vision is implemented, to a high quality, across the campaign. I have a key focus on packaging design, ensuring existing artwork is updated accordingly in-line with current branding and also create brand new artwork when required.My role has enabled me to greatly expand my skills across digital design, including email, website, social & animation assets, and I am constantly looking for ways to improve my technical and design skills.I am confident liaising with internal & external stakeholders and suppliers to ensure all assets we create meet with strict brand guidelines and high quality expectations on a frequent basis.
