Biography

After completing my degree course at The University of Central Lancashire I started work in a small design agency in Doncaster. I later moved to Sheffield in the year 2000 to work at a Reprographics House. I later went on to work in this field for a well known Sheffield printer. In November 2004 I joined the graphics team at The University Print Service, which has helped me combine both my design and reprographics skills.
