Bio
Allie Stewart
I had the pleasure of working with Jason for three years during my time at Forbidden Planet. In those years he not only excelled in his role of Senior Web Content Creator & Admin, but also brought his expert knowledge of photography and the Adobe Creative Suite to the team. He is proficient in Adobe software such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Lightroom and InDesign. His photography skills strengthened our social media marketing campaigns and press releases which helped to improve the online visibility of the company. I highly recommend Jason, he would be an asset to any team.

I've worked with Jason for 5 years, and he's tirelessly dedicated to each task, with a real drive to achieve the very best. In work I've seen him use his IT skills to both edit and also create web content, via Adobe Suite and Mail Chimp. There's no dount his work has helped drive revenue for the business. Outside of work it's always a pleasure to see Jason's new creative design work, often inspired by pop culture, on original prints - and also his growing passion for photography, which I strongly suggest everybody checks out on social media.
