I was born in Glenrothes, Scotland and spent the first 18 years of my life growing up the usual way - mucking about and creating havoc.
It was only when I left High School and entered the world of design at college that I realised design was going to be such a big part of my life.
All grown up now with several years of industry experience under my belt, I'm taking on the world one design project at a time.
I studied Graphic Design at the Adam Smith College in Fife, Scotland. It was here that taught me the skills I was going to use in my career as a designer and allowed me to gain experence working in graphic design, web design, motion graphics and film.
Since graduating in 2008 I have applied my craft as a Web Designer for a UK airline and currently the Design Team Leader at eCom Scotland working on an array of interesting and challeging projects.
