I am an illustrator and designer with amazing communication skills. I am flexible and I always approach things with a positive attitude. My work is heavily influenced by traditional observational work which I then develop digitally on Photoshop and other Adobe software. My work focuses in on capturing the vibrancy and energy of community, food, and culture through colourful, dynamic, mixed media illustrations.

Within my time at university, I thoroughly developed my communication skills through consistently discussing work with both peers and tutors. I was part of a publication team which created a broadsheet highlighting the work students had completed in collaboration with the John Innes Science Centre. Within this team I took a leadership role and was responsible for creating and giving presentations and delegating tasks. This experience showed me the value of organisation and communication, which are skills I now embody.
