Summary

I am a creative professional with extensive experience in running my own business for the past 13 years. I have been building my business full time since 2018 and create colourful, bold images for print, digital and web mediums. I am skilled in creating illustrations using a mixture of techniques to create a layered effect that allows detail and shape to form. These designs are used to create my wildlife collections that have successfully grown over the years, and now cover a wide range of products.

I have been working on the wholesale side of the business since 2020 and currently stock a wide range of independent retailers alongside larger businesses/ organisations such as Visit Scotland, The Wildlife Trust, RSPB, Scotland Museums.

Running my own business and working alongside a wide range of businesses on a daily basis, I am organised, self motivated, Pro-active and skilled in communication with clients and manufacturers.
