Twenty plus years experience in book design - covers and internals. Specialising in biography, history, architecture and current affairs.

Overview

My clients include large publishers as well as independent self publishing authors. With over 20 years experience in design and print production, every project is an opportunity to find a design solution that allows a book to reach its full potential. Clients tell me I have a knack for sourcing the perfect photo for covers and my interest in typography ensures type is well considered at all times. I am quick to respond to queries and always provide multiple concepts for cover designs. I look forward to working with you.
