Overview
I am a very enthusiastic and versatile text designer and typesetter with many years of experience in book publishing, committed to creating welcoming, readable and attractive designs that fulfil the brief on time and within budget. I work quickly and meticulously, both as part of a wider team and independently, and I prioritise keeping my skill set and industry knowledge up to date. I am happy designing individual titles, but also creating templates for series styles, and have never lost the thrill of excitement at turning a manuscript into a beautiful new book.
