Growing up in Hertfordshire, I first started studying Graphic Design in 2011. I received my degree in Typography and Graphic Communication from the University of Reading back in 2020 - and have been working full time ever since. The course allowed me to develop a wide array of design skills, suitable for the working world.
During my time at Reading, I received the opportunity to undergo a placement scheme and defer my third year (2018). This challenged me to put all my new skills into practice and really helped to fast track my progression as a designer. Post degree I was rehired by the same marketing agency as a graphic designer and account manager. I stayed in this role, learning as much as I could for a year and a half before moving to Global Touring.

At Global Touring I currently operate as a Design Specialist with team lead responsibilities. This
in-house role as taught me a lot, from management skills, to international design campaigns. I currently manage a team of 4-6 people during paid media and have to maintain high levels of organisation and cooperation.
In my free time I have always been interested in side hustles and building my own businesses. This is something I have seen great success in. The next step for me is to find a role that allows me to scratch the itch of brand growth, international marketing campaigns and excitement!
