Bio
Leopold Taylor
Cynthia has been a delight to work with. We were originally so impressed by her graduation project on edible insects that we had to reach out and have a chat. Cynthia is ambitious, eager to learn and works like a pro across all sorts of design software from graphic to animation to film to 3D. She's helped us put together packaging designs, social media campaigns, marketing material and promo films. We call her the Taiwanese army knife. 🚀
Rich Wilson
Cynthia has been a really valuable partner working on the launch of a new co-working space in Crewe. She helped us with design work using an existing brand, maintaining its brand consistency and tone as well as producing a refresh to another brand. Her input was invaluable taking the work a day elements up a notch or two as well. She also prepared the artwork to a high standard which may not be exciting but it certainly stops us becoming the wrong kind of excited.
