Biography
I am a multi disciplined designer with a love for all things creative. I love a creative challenge which enables me to push my skills and learn more. My passions lay with branding, illustrations and sneakers, although I have put my hands to many other creative areas such as social media marketing and print design.

Client: Penguin Books
Media: Print
Solution: Taking as inspiration, the phrase “Every Turkey has a Mom.” from the book Talking Turkeys by Benjammin Zephaniah, where the author points out the moral dilemma of eating something that has a mother, I devised a book cover featuring a family portrait of a mum. The picture is set against flock wallpaper to represent a typical home interior.
