Statement
As a designer, I love working over a range of mediums, I feel this really broadens the creative mind and brings new and unique ideas to the table. While my main passion has been creating publications and having a huge love for typography, I always find myself working across all areas to grow my work in new ways, whether that be making objects or illustrating. My goal throughout university was to create work for a positive impact in the world, which is why now having an internship with 91 Untold in Bristol is the perfect stepping stone towards my career. With them so far I have created work designing for print, web, and video directing to editing.

Featured Projects:
This was a newspaper I created to present how the media speaks about gentrification to find different views on the topic, and to compare to the voices straight from the people who have been affected. I created this engraved wallet to represent the feelings and emotions behind a victim of gentrification using an empty wallet with the words laser engraved inside. This is a publication exploring how gentrification has affected people in different cities, and the negative impact it can have. The publication also includes illustrations I have done to accompany the text and represent the stories being told.
