I look after the whole look of a brand, from start to finish, to create a cohesive identity.

Product Design

Your brand is how the world sees you before you say a word. I build visual identities that are intentional, consistent, and made to last. Logo, colour, typography, brand guidelines, and all the graphic design assets you need to show up consistently across print and digital.

FIgma, Wordpress, Wix and more

Your website is often the first proper impression people get. I build everything myself, from strategy and UX through to design and no-code development, so you're working with one person who sees how it all fits together, not a designer and a developer who've never spoken.

Visual Storytelling

Already have a brand but something feels off? I take a close look at what you have (your visual identity, messaging, and online presence) and tell you exactly what's working, what isn't, and what to do about it. No fluff, just clear direction.

Developing visual concepts and creative strategies that guide projects from idea to execution. This includes defining visual language, art direction, and ensuring consistency across all outputs.

The Process

How a 360° project works

A brand is made of hundreds of small decisions: a color, a typeface, the way a button looks, the tone of a caption. When those decisions are made in one place, they stay connected. The thinking behind your identity carries straight into your website, and your website into every post and printed piece that follows.

That’s why I work in this order. We start with the foundations and build outwards, so each step is shaped by what came before, and nothing has to be reinvented along the way.

1. Getting to know you.

Who you're for, what you want to be known for, and what isn't working yet.

2. Brand foundations

The strategy and personality everything else will follow.

3. Identity and guidelines

Logo, color, type and the rules that keep it consistent.

4. Website development

Designed and built on top of the brand, not alongside it.

5. Social media, ads and/or print

Social media posts, templates, business cards, flyers, whatever you need to show up.

6. Handover and beyond

Everything you need to run it yourself, and me on hand when you want more.

If something here resonated, I'd love to hear
what you're working on.
