“I’m having a blast, happy days!”

Since graduating from Staffordshire University in 2008 with a shiny design degree in hand, I’ve had an amazing journey in the creative industry. Seven years on and I’m still having a blast! It’s an industry that really excites me – ever evolving and always providing new challenges. It’s allowed me to develop my passion through an expansive range of mediums while meeting great people and clients along the way!

Having cut my teeth at a brand agency I have a particular passion for crafting brand identity, I love getting underneath the skin of a business to provide an effective response that ticks all the boxes.

At Parker Design I now have the opportunity to continue my journey at a successful growing agency, working with an amazing team of talent on a wide range of fantastic projects, happy days!

In my spare time away from my Mac I like to apply my obsessive attention to detail to my love of cars – having had several award winning and magazine featured VW beetles and American trucks. If I’m not underneath my car you’ll find me in North Wales in the sea following my other passions in life – wakeboarding and surfing.
