Graphic Designer
I love bringing ideas to life. Since graduating with a BA (Hons) in Digital Design from Glasgow Caledonian University, I’ve had the joy of designing a wide range of creative projects. Design is visual communication at its heart. Every idea begins with a story to tell, and graphic design is how we make sure people really see and feel it. A picture really is worth a thousand words… and so is your idea. From magazine and album covers to merchandise design, I bring creative briefs to life through thoughtful, visually compelling design. Whatever the project, I turn ideas into visuals that connect—boldly, intentionally, and with heart.
While I have a list of services available, I can turn my hand to just about any creative brief. If you have an idea—big or small—I’d love to hear about it and help bring it to life through thoughtful, custom design. Let’s work together to bring yours to life!
One of my favourite areas to work in is merchandise design—whether it’s custom apparel, prints, packaging, or promotional pieces. I love taking a concept and turning it into something people can hold, wear, or use—something that tells a story and connects with an audience in a tangible, lasting way.
Some recent favourites include a Christian Union hoodie designed to unify and encourage students on campus, a “Fruitfulness” jumper created for The Navigators UK to reflect their heart for gospel impact, and a “Uniquely Made” tote bag in warm autumn tones—given as a creative and thoughtful gift.
Each of these pieces started with a message worth sharing—and that’s what makes this kind of design so meaningful to me
I worked as Social Media Manager for The Navigators UK for two years, using Instagram to promote events, resources, and local ministries across the country. My goal was to build a polished, professional, and consistent online presence—featuring real people from within the ministry to highlight authenticity, connection, and the heart of our work.
During this time, I created a media strategy to strengthen our algorithm presence and help staff across the organisation feel more connected to one another’s work. I also designed a range of branded Canva templates, curated content, and supported the visual storytelling of our ministry.
Now, I’m available for freelance work—offering custom Canva templates, branded social media content, and photography for your brand, project, or business.
I love weddings! Each one is unique, and every detail matters. Your big day should feel personal and intentional, right down to the stationery.
I design custom wedding stationery that reflects your style and story—from save the dates and RSVPs to welcome signs, seating charts, and more. Thoughtful, beautifully crafted, and made to bring your special ideas to life.

Artwork
I’ve been painting for as long as I can remember. Art is my emotional outlet, a creative escape, and the place I return to when I need grounding. Growing up, what I lacked in words, I made up for in colour, shape, and story. My overactive imagination poured itself onto the page, turning thoughts into visuals and emotions into form.. Even now, painting is where I reconnect and retreat. It offers both grounding and freedom. An escape from the mundane, and a way of making sense of life’s deeper layers.
Most of my work is inspired by natures wildness, stillness, rhythm, and contrast. I’m drawn to the beauty in the details: textures, layers, and patterns brought to life through mixed media.
