I gained an HND in Computer Graphic Design and Production at Aberdeen College, and since graduating in June 2007, I've been freelancing. So far, so good...

I use a variety of software programmes, including Photoshop, Freehand, Flash, and many more. I love to mix them up, some bits done in Photoshop, some in Freehand and so on. It keeps things new and interesting. I also try to mix in some hand-drawn bits and pieces; it's fun to mess about with paint and ink, and I love to draw. I enjoy just about any design project, from logo design, to posters, to packaging, and I also enjoy creating illustrations.

I also love animation; I took my first nervous steps with Flash in November 2006, with 'Reg the Penguin's Not So Merry Christmas', the first in what I hope are the continuing adventures of the unlucky Reg - watch out for more soon. Since then I have produced several more animations and interactive presentations, including a website prototype for a custom clothing store.

I am 24 years old and a native Aberdonian, although after 4 years living in Glasgow, the accent does get a bit muddled sometimes! I am addicted to rock music and have some playing constantly when I'm working - music is probably my biggest imspiration. I also love to read and when I tear myself away from my computer, I paint.
