Overview
I've been working as a freelance designer since 2012. Prior to this I was Art Director for Weidenfeld & Nicolson (the literary imprint within the Orion Publishing Group) where I worked on covers for authors such as Judie Dench, Michael Palin and Julie Walters, to name but a few!
I now work independently from my home in North London or in-house with other creatives, designing all aspects of books from covers, integrated interiors and marketing material. My aim is to always deliver work on time and within budget.
My current client list includes: Bloomsbury, Ebury Publishing, Elliott & Thompson, Hodder & Stoughton, Lucas Alexander Whitley Agency and Quercus Books.
