I’m as excited to see the next brief as I was my first.
I can’t wait to find out ‘what problem am I solving today?’ and, more importantly, ‘who am I solving it for?’
Even when I’ve seen the same brief before, the answer is always different because the client ALWAYS has a unique story.
It’s YOU that keeps it interesting.

I’ve only ever been a graphic designer. From school art lessons, to a foundation course, then a graphics degree, then my first studio job.
My second studio job was in central London until being made redundant in the late 90s. I’ve been freelance ever since and I LOVE it.
I freelance with several agencies in London, working on projects for clients that include L&Q Housing, Britvic and the NHS.
When I’m not on an agency project, I support small businesses and charities in East London and Essex, with design that builds consistent brand messages.
I am also part of MC2 Marketing based in Brentwood, Essex.
MC2 Marketing is a ‘virtual’ agency that specilises in Media, Marketing, Creative, Content & Websites.
What’s unique about MC2 Marketing, and why I enjoy being part of this collective, is their strategic approach to marketing.
MC2 Director, Ian Mullins, has 30+ years extensive media experience (MediaCom, Carat, Mindshare) and takes a direct, simple approach to working with you to build targeted and fully costed campaigns – all of which set our clients up for growth.
If you’re like the many people we meet, paying web companies hundreds of pounds a month and don’t know what you’re getting for it, I recommend you talk with Ian at MC2 Marketing)
I design and retouch from home, but for bigger projects, I call on my network of freelance writers, photographers, filmmakers, animators, strategists, digital gurus, marketing experts and proofreaders…I work with some seriously talented people!
We’re all here to help. That’s a lot of agency experience without the agency overheads.
I care about the environment and recently signed up to Design Declares. I already use responsibly sourced materials wherever possible and use FSC and recycled papers.
I also avoid single use plastic and laminates, but I’m looking forward to learning more from the Design Declares resources and community.
Anyway, enough about me. I look forward to getting to know you and your business.
Jan.
