Working on medium to high budget exhibition stand designs and live events. Project Managing, incorporating tight schedules, deadlines, managing workloads and designing to a variety of budget constraints. Undertaking detailed briefings with clients, developing designs which meet the client’s expectations. Using a combination of Vectorworks, Artlantis and Adobe Suite to deliver detailed working plans through to final renders and presenting back to the client. As Lead Creative I work with a team of carpenters to build the exhibition stands for live events, often overseeing the build on site. Communication skills and confidence are key to establishing good relationships with several different specialist departments in order to bring a project together into a successful show. Leading with knowledge, patience and perseverance, I am senior lead to a team of three designers, advising and guiding them through their ongoing projects. Mentoring peers and training new recruits on all aspects of the design process and the applications used.

Working at D&A was a varied role including internal magazine production and layouts. I also produced promotional material and visual communications that were displayed on TV screens throughout the business. What started off as a temporary position was soon turned into a permanent one after I improved a number of the companies internal communications adding a more contemporary style to what they were accustomed to.
