THIS IS ME.........

Hi, Thanks for taking the time to visit my portfolio site. I have included snapshots of projects I have worked on with the project information. A full portfolio and drawing packages will be shown on request.

I have been working professionaly in one form or another since the age of 16.

Art, design, fashion and music have always been passions of mine...(not to mention camping, the great outdoors, larking about and food! )

I started my career as a dj setting up and running a very successful night in Bath, which later progressed to regular spots in London and Cardiff. This skill and experience allowed me to put myself through university studying Interior Architecture, and led to graphics jobs designing promotional flyers, posters and band artwork.

In my design career I have always sought out small and interesting practices in order to get as involved in projects as possible, learn fast and expand my knowledge. I have been really fortunate to work with some fantastic people on some great projects. I became freelance in Oct 2007 as I felt I had good transferrable skills to take on any projects I came across in different practices. I love meeting new people, jumping in at the deep end and refreshing my design knowledge.

During 2009, work has been thin on the ground, but I have taken the opportunity to learn new skills in web design, and update my graphic design with tutorials from the internet. I have added these new self initiated works to my portfolio.

I am currently working at setting up my own design studio. see www.longdollardesign.com for examples of my latest graphic design and web design projects.
