This was a work experience placement. I did 5 business days of work for the company; this consisted of Architectural planning, drawing and interior design but also graphic design near the end of the week. Key Achievements: o I quickly became familiar with the new software introduced to me which was to do with architectural design. o Punctual, getting to work on time was key, and I managed to do this every day and take my breaks at well planned times. o I maintained a professional attitude whilst in the office and outside during a site visit. o I produced a high standard of graphical work which was recognized by the graphic’s department. Other Since 2006 I have been working freelance for a few companies such as: Benchmark Pcs, Wolf Computers and a few other low profile company’s. They have given me great feedback on how to become a much better business and design professional. I worked for an online graphics site called sigrequest which I started out as a designer and worked my way up to lead designer, head designer and later to be one of the administrators for the web site.
skills and personal qualities An energetic and enthusiastic individual, who enjoys working as part of a team, is a good communicator and is looking to use his skills in a challenging design environment. Key Skills Customer Orientation – Understands the need to exceed customer expectations. I will put customers first. Communication – Clear concise, written and oral communicator with people at all levels and backgrounds. Team Working – Works well in a team ensuring own valuable contribution and providing support to team members. As an experienced freelance graphic designer I can create an excellent professional client relationship, this skill attracts and retain high profile clients.
Personal Skills I have an excellent ability to communicate with others. I thrive off challenges. I have a very wide knowledge with computers, whether it’s to do with the general hardware of the computer or with how things work in certain programs. If I come across something I do not understand I used my initiative to research and find solutions to what can help this. As a freelance graphic designer I have had a few clients, this has helped me release how important it is to have a strong relationship with the client, not only does this reinsure the client that he/she is working with someone they feel happy with but also you get to know them and what they want in their final product much better.

hobbies and interests My main interest is graphic design really, I love to read magazines, logo books etc about designs. I spend a lot of time taking photographs also, I recently invested in a 100m macro lens which is great. When not on the computer I like to go out on my motorcycle, cinema, go out for meals and basically anything really, I’m easy going. Three times a week I go to the gym to keep in shape, I also take part in mixed martial arts with the trojan free fighters. I play guitar every now and then, I used to take classical acoustic lessons, which I got to grade 3 with high honours. I am a member of a professional online gaming clan called pro*only, though I am not active in this due to college work.
