Employment History
Freelance
June 2011 – Present
Freelance: Creative Artworker, Retoucher, Visualiser
A professional and approachable artworker, retoucher, and visualiser with a keen eye for detail. Versatile and experienced in producing a wide range of graphics for both print and digital purposes. Specialising in packaging, POS, exhibitions, and experiential projects. Highly experienced in working on localisation and multi-language artworks. Whether collaborating as part of a team or working independently, I always strive to meet clients’ needs with the highest level of professionalism.
Design Go Limited
October 2008 – June 2011
Creative Artworker, Retoucher, Illustrator
At Design Go, I artworked and retouched high-quality graphics for both large and small formats. My projects ranged from large-scale exhibition graphics and point-of-sale displays to packaging ranges and catalogues. Additionally, I created pack visuals, illustrations, and infographics for instructional packs and booklets.
As part of a two-man artwork team, I was often solely responsible for many designs, guiding them from concept stages to polished print or web-ready graphics. My deep understanding of packaging and print enabled me to creatively produce unique cutter designs and illustrations for Design Go and its sub-brands, many of which are still in global distribution.
Wyndeham Kestrel Limited
August 2005 – October 2008
Packaging Artworker
In this role, my primary responsibility was to create and amend FMCG packaging artwork for large clients such as Tesco, Britvic, and Unilever. During my time at Wyndeham Kestrel, I gained a solid knowledge of print processes and understood the importance of brand image. I learned to adapt fluently to the different styles of artwork and print required by each client.
I attended artwork team meetings where I contributed insights on new work protocols, ways to improve workflow, and performance.
