About me

I began my career as a Graphic Designer for an online sports retailer, where I quickly progressed to team leader. This experience allowed me to hone my leadership and design skills, which ultimately led me to start my own business. After successfully growing my business into a comfortable side income, I joined Forgeway, an adhesive supplier, as a Graphic Designer. Within a year, I was promoted to Creative & Marketing Manager, where I led a comprehensive rebranding, redesigning their website, packaging, and overall approach. This transformation helped drive significant success, positioning the company with a stronger, more cohesive brand identity.
