Personnel
Statement
Being involved
with various exhibitions and design events, either working alone or with
others has enhanced my organisational skills and helped me to work to
deadlines. I design and produce functional objects for interior use, working
in the metal discipline, but I can apply these skills to other areas of
design. I believe I have an eye for design and knowledge of aesthetics
having been commissioned by leading design shops such as Ralph Lauren
and design outlets like Area Squared Design. Having achieved my degree
in Applied Arts, and obtaining previous qualifications in art and design,
I can apply this knowledge to approach my chosen discipline in a contextual
and contemporary manner.
