About Me.

I'm a UK-based graphic designer, most often working with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and have designed logos and brand identities for new businesses, industry dinners, graphics for packaging and merchandise for social campaigns, marketing, advertising, and more!

Ive had quite a convoluted journey to where I am now, from falling into office work straight from college, not really knowing what direction to go, before upping sticks and moving to London to be a professional makeup artist for film, TV and theatre-Yep, quite the career pivot.

After a decade or so, I found that working in blizzards, sleeping under tables and rainy night shoots were no longer appealing, I realised that I could use skills from both careers in graphic design (all whilst being warm and dry). Yippee!

But seriously, I love the variety of work I get as a designer and there really are no creative limits.

My approach to each challenge is very ideas-driven, making sure that every aspect is intentionally crafted to convey your message in the clearest way possible with no fluff and faff. I believe in delivering coherent visuals and stylish brands, full of purpose and personality.

My aim is to not only improve your business, but also free up your time, allowing you to focus on what you truly love.

I would absolutely recommend Claire for any projects or design work. She was part of my team for several years while we were both at UK Finance and the quality of her work was superb and she was a pleasure to work with.

Claire takes great pride in producing extremely high quality work, typically to tight deadlines, and is always keen to improve and learn more too.

She is extremely creative and I would have no hesitation in commissioning her for projects or recommending anyone who is looking for a high quality professional approach to a project.

Kind words from my clients.

I have been a client of Claire's several times. She has designed my logos, branding and packaging for various businesses over the years.

She is completely honest and straightforward. Her creativity is superb with quick turnarounds. She knew exactly when to pull me back from my wild imagination and somehow knew exactly what I needed.

Claire is my first stop whenever I have a new idea. Highly recommended!!!

Claire has been fantastic to work with, as always. She is very professional, supportive, and service focussed. It often feels like we’re working with an external design agency, and by that I mean Claire really cares about what our requirements are, delivering them to an excellent standard and engaging with the teams in a way that makes us feel like we are being looked after by the content team.

We have been delivering a lot this year, especially in our operational resilience and regulatory related work through CMORG. Claire’s work has brought all of that to life and I know that many of our stakeholders, especially the Bank of England are very impressed with how the CMORG brand that Claire designed, and the subsequent reports and documents under that brand, have turned out.

In fact, our colleagues in the Bank have shown CMORG outputs to the likes of Sam Woods and Andrew Bailey, and I know that they are very impressed with what CMORG is doing in terms of collaborative outputs for industry, and I have heard that those senior stakeholders have commented directly on the brand and design elements of the outputs.

So really a huge well done to Claire. I know that she is an absolute essential part to the professionalisation of our work on OPRES with the Bank of England. Without her and the design work she has done so well, it would have been much more of an uphill battle to build CMORG’s presence. Thanks to Claire building and maintain the branding, UK Finance is seen as the strategic partner to the Bank on sector resilience.

I highly recommend Claire for any projects or design work. I had the pleasure of seeing her work her magic while we were both at UK Finance.

The work she undertook on the materials I produced for the sanctions education stream during the initial months of the Russian invasion turned plain word documents into well thought out and visually striking documents.

Her ability to see deeper into the graphical and design options than I could delivered excellent materials.

Claire is calm, knowledgeable, creative, supportive, professional and an absolute pleasure to work with.
