What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a graphic design role where I can apply my creative training and production skills, while using my disciplined organization and customer-focused professionalism to support a dynamic team.

I’m a graphic designer with a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design and a “diligent and adaptable” working style. I bring strong organizational ability and attention to detail, supported by both creative practice and service-focused roles.

Alongside my design training, I built experience in security operations, including CCTV monitoring and customer service. I’ve proven I can maintain safety, monitor surveillance, and provide administrative support through roles at Safe4U and Royal Albert Dock.

I translate structure and clarity into my work—strengthened through graphic design and food preparation experience. I’m eager to leverage my “diverse skill set” to contribute effectively to a dynamic team.

My professional path includes freelance graphic design work and commercial design experience, along with relevant certifications such as Level 2 Award for CCTV Operator and Emergency First Aid. I’m ready to take on design responsibilities with the same reliability I bring to security and reception tasks.
