From generating creative concepts to delivering commercial solutions, I have a proven record contributing to the growth and success of the companies and agencies I’ve worked for.

I always aim to:

  • understand the brand and honour it with a unique and fitting approach
  • continually learn and embrace a variety of tasks to get the best results
  • bring imagination and enthusiasm to every project
  • keep my ego out of the way (and my sense of humour intact)
From the start, Kay was quickly able to comprehend, honour and execute our new visual identity. She is great at interpreting briefs and taking on board feedback, always creating imaginative designs and evolving the work skilfully throughout the process. She has been able to identify potential issues and flag up important details, saving us time. Her designs are well executed and engaging, and her standards high. She has worked hard to achieve our priorities, whilst being easy to work with, professional and reliable.

Communications Manager, The Bridge Foundation
During the four years I worked with Kay at Syzygy UK, she was always full of ideas, energy and enthusiasm. She has an appreciation for all things visual and championed a design-led approach to our working process. As a Project Manager I depended upon her ability to give accurate estimates and timings. She was able to consider all aspects of a project and explain complex issues to various stakeholders. Her eagle-eye for detail came to the rescue on several occasions when she spotted errors before they became costly. Kay is also really fun to work with!

Head of Dleivery Operations, BBC
Kay delivered exactly what we were aiming for in our design: a feeling of luxury, elegance and openness. She helped define our initial brief and bring it to life, asking detailed questions and offering loads of ideas. She really thought things through – from the typeface, to the words we used, to the individual layout of each section. She made sure every part of the website worked, was easy to find and easy to use.

Kay has an amazing ability to easily visualise exactly what it is the client requires. Her design skills and ideas perfectly match what is requested. Working with Kay is easy, straightforward and enjoyable.

Kay’s branding designs were just what we wanted. She also got us online and taught us how to update the website. She is professional and was able to create a strong and clear visual identity for our company.
