I am a Portsmouth based artist and creative director with over 15 years’ experience working across art, design, fashion and visual communication. My career began in fashion, graduating with distinction from The Manchester School of Art, where I developed a strong interest in concept led design and unconventional materials. I went on to found Dumpster Design, creating couture pieces and installations from recycled materials for clients including the Royal Navy, Suzuki and Nigella Lawson. Creating high end concept shoots for ad campaigns. I was named Radical Designer of the Year by the British Fashion Design Council.
Ive got my finger in a lot of pies and later transitioned into graphic design, and now work as Creative Director for MindWorks Marketing, leading creative strategy across digital and print. Alongside this, I run The Bookmark Boys, a cult independent brand with over 23,000 sales. My work blends bold visual storytelling, humour and accessible creativity, often exploring how technology and AI can expand traditional creative practice.
