## About

```text
At Clinical Partners, I produced creative across marketing, digital, print and events during a transition between creative agencies and following a company rebrand. I developed branded materials and templates, designed campaigns and patient communications, and worked on website layouts, user journeys and accessibility.

As a self-employed Senior Graphic Designer, I deliver branding, print, digital and marketing projects for businesses, brands and creative agencies. My projects have included work for Ferrero Rocher, Daniel Wellington and Pfizer, alongside start-ups and established businesses.

At GoVicinity Creative Ltd, I led branding and campaign projects from brief to delivery, managed client relationships and print production, and supported junior designers. I also collaborated with creative teams at Plus972 Group on branding and marketing projects, including residential development graphics and materials.
