Hi, I'm Tom

I am a Graphic Designer based in the Lake District, England. With a background in Product Design, I pride myself on my design thinking. While a polished final design is rewarding, it is the design journey and process that gives it value.

My Career so Far...

I graduated with a First Class degree in Product Design from the University of Leeds where I learned key design thinking tools and methods. Following my degree I worked for DriveWorks, a software company with a Queen's Award for Innovation, where I was the first Product Design Assistant in The Sales and Marketing Team to bring my design perspective to innovate and improve current demos, collaborating with customers, sales, engineers and front-end developers. Following this I worked as a Graphic Designer at MTP Media where I gained excellent print knowledge in terms of print set-up, layouts and best practices. Since then I have travelled across the World to Canada to pursue my outdoor passions in mountaineering, climbing and snowboarding where I achieved some great expeditions while establishing myself as an international Freelance Designer taking on projects from UX/UI to branding and more. I have worked with companies such as MT Finance, Impact International, Greenwich Education Group and RestingPlace. I am now a Part-time Graphic Designer at ASSA Abloy in the marketing team and I am excited to be seeking a full-time Graphic Design position to continue my passion in design and collaborate with a team of motivated peers.
