You got style
Let’s get down to business...
My first job after leaving college
was a Junior Designer role at
USB2U
USB2U took me on as an apprentice,
giving me my chance in the working
world. Within the first three months
of working there I was promoted to
Junior Designer, which boosted my self
esteem and opened the door to new
experiences.

USB2U
At USB2U I took control of all web
branding, product photography and
physical branding such as pull-up banners.
I also worked on mocking up clients
artwork and logos onto our products
adheering closely to their guidlines as
well as setting their artwork up for print,
engraving and proccessing that on the
machinery myself.
After leaving USB2U I moved
on to greater things as a
Designer at Fusion-Events
I am part of a design studio, at Fusion.
We work very closely together to get
the job done, working with two 3D
designers and also another 2D designer
producing work for clientele such as:
Rolls-Royce, Renault, Hyundai, KIA,
Ford, Nissan, Volvo and Dacia.

Renault - Eden Project
A fun project working in partnership
with the Eden Project, creating vehicle
wraps for Renault’s electric vehicles.
My idea behind this was to re-create
the hexagonal pattern from the biomes
and wrap them around the vehicles,
tying them in with the botanical garden
surroundings.

Nissan - N-GAGE Gathering
A proposed secret gig event for Nissan
involved a series of branding which
included creating the logo, designing car
graphics and shipping containers. The
event was a treasure hunt for all Nissan
car owners. The object was for them to
find secret gigs dotted around the UK.
Each shipping container they discovered
hosted a surprise music artists.

Renault - DJ BBQ
One of my favourite Renault jobs was
making the DJ BBQ food truck. Working
with Christian (DJ BBQ) to re-create his
logo and then draw up a concept for
the truck. We went all out on this adding
flame throwers, mechanised speakers
which emerged from the roof and mixing
decks on the inside.
The biggest challenge on this was setting
the flames up for print so they would not
distorted by the corrugated steel walls.

Mazda - All-New Mazda2
This was a budget proposal for secret beatboxers to pull people out of the crowd
to unveal the all-new Mazda2. Mazda specifically asked for an urban theme so that’s
exactly what I gave them, incorporating both beatboxing and graffiti.

Creative education...
Life studying Art & Design at Northampton College
College for me was one of the best
times of my life. I met amazing people,
travelled a lot and most importantly
gathered inspiration for the start of my
design career. I kickstarted my freelance
design work creating gig posters for the
music department at college, making a
name for myself.
