Professional-procrastinator. Coffee-enthusiast. Charity-shop-frequenter. I’m a London-based Graphic Designer and love all things typographic! I have a diploma in graphic design and certificates in photography and digital media (plus "real" experience in print / digital / interior design). I love a good deadline, bring on the innovative and forward thinking creative briefs!
