EXPERIENCE
Freelance.
Graphic Designer / 2019 - Present
I design high-quality digital marketing and branding for businesses to enhance their brands, such as creating brand guidelines and templates for an esports brand, flyers and posters for the UK’s leading garage flooring company, content strategy and posts for brands, and content creators.
Highlights:
• Be the sole designer for an up-and-coming esports brand. Aw0babobs launched in 2022 and is taking the competitive gaming scene by storm. When I was brought in there was no brand, so I created their brand guidelines and a variety of different social media templates.
• Create a variety of flyers and posters for the UK's Leading Garage Flooring company. Garage Style approached me with the desire to upgrade its existing marketing material for an upcoming event.
• Create content strategy and posts for one of the largest Formula 1 merchandise sellers. For Vantage97 each month I plan out which posts will go out as well as design the posts with the goal in mind to drive traffic to their stores. I do this with organic feed posts and also Meta paid ads.
• Produce a variety of personal brand material for content creators. This can include on-screen elements for live streamers, logos, and also social media branding.
Tanso.
Graphic Designer / 2022
Working alongside the Head of Marketing, we helped brands use their social media to excel in their business. I produced for and worked with a variety of brands and businesses. One is a Top 20 podcast and others are involved in the motorsport industry.
Highlights:
• Produce the brand guidelines and social media posts for a Top 20 podcast. Your Life Your Brand, which launched at number 20 in the UK business charts was a fresh concept when brought to me. I selected and made the entire visual identity from colour palettes, fonts, and all the way to social media templates.
• Design a variety of Formula 1 inspired posters for Vantage97. After each race week I'd make a bespoke race winner poster to celebrate their victory with the goal to jump on the trend and get more traffic driven to the company store.
• Create content strategy and posts for one of the largest Formula 1 merchandise sellers. For Vantage97 each month I plan out which posts will go out as well as design the posts with the goal in mind to drive traffic to their stores. I do this with organic feed posts and also Meta paid ads.
• Work with Rapid Image, a local photography company with helping them maintain and design their website. I created a variety of stylish pages and landing sites for them, all to help streamline their funnel and convert leads into sales.
Trade Mastermind.
Graphic Designer / 2021 - 2022
Being apart of the marketing team to help develop and improve the brand image of the company. Teamwork is key in the marketing department, meaning I worked closely with my supervisors, social media managers, content writers as well as videographers.
Highlights:
• Each week, myself and the marketing team collaborated to produce high-quality Facebook paid ads. Each ad was created using a template method, so they could be produced for all the different sizes (square, banner, and story)
• Brand the entire YouTube channel for the company. Following the pre-existing brand guidelines, I created banners, icons, and thumbnails for the channel. Trade Mastermind had a video scheduled for each day, so using project management software, myself and the Social Media Manager had everything ready in advance.
• Produce a collection of ebooks for Joseph. Joseph is a number one best-selling author on Amazon, so my task was to redo all the design elements for his ebooks to increase their visual quality while keeping with cohesive branding across the company.
• Working alongside the Event Manager I designed and created a collection of marketing material for the business's events. Some of the content I produced was roller banners, brochures and posters.
