Welcome.

I am a highly experienced and accomplished Art Director and have retained a passion for producing beautiful, innovative work over the course of my varied career. I now lead a talented team at the John Lewis Partnership, where I direct the busy Communications art department to deliver on the needs of the business, ensuring that quality and creativity are reflected in everything we do. 

Over a 25-year-long career I’ve applied my design aesthetic and creative vision to many rebrands and relaunches and have always had a strong focus on communications design. I’ve been fortunate to work with some of the most talented photographers and illustrators in the industry and my passion for the work is as strong as ever.

Whatever I'm asked to create, I follow one simple rule – communication is key. I enjoy creating a variety of clean, effective work with one goal in mind – helping you to get your message across. From editorial content to marketing messages, brand values to product information, I appreciate that design for design's sake doesn't help you. Getting consumers on board does.

I've been lucky enough to work with, and for, some great clients (see Clients page). I've worked in the consumer and charity sectors, in art teams, design studios and freelance, creating editorial, marketing, communications and branding content.
