Work experience
Self-employed
I run a successful packaging company for children's books with the wonderful writer and editor Clare Hibbert. We cover a wide range of subject matters as diverse as Animals, Dinosaurs, Religion, Space, Science, History and Art (to name but a few of the topics we've covered). From initial concept through to print ready documents we manage every aspect of the books. I specialise in storyboarding and working closely with illustrators to produce books that are not only beautiful and exciting but interesting and educational. Our clients have included Arcturus, Franklin Watts, The British Library and QED.
Kingfisher Publishing, Pan Macmillan, London
My role involved commissioning and project managing a number of varied and exciting series of illustrated and photographic books for children. From initial concept, visualising, styling and commissioning, through to keeping the projects on schedule, I worked on every aspect of the books. This involved discovering new talent in the illustration community, personal photography, photomontage, picture research and high-resolution Photoshop work.
