Personal Statement:

A soon to be graphic design graduate from Leeds Arts University, with a passionate and positive attitude. I love working in a team, creating and developing ideas which have led to successful collaborative projects. I am equally confident working on my own, eager to learn new skills and I respond well to feedback to ensure the highest quality outcome.

Work Experience:

Cineworld, Starbucks Barista
(August 2016 - Present)
As a barista customer interaction is integral, working with a smile and a positive attitude ensures a high quality experience. Working within a small team it is essential that there is clear communication and support for each other.

Dolcino, Food & Beverage Assistant
Ice cream parlour and cafe, serving waffles and crepes.
(June 2015 - August 2016)
This job involved a lot of customer interaction, quality was essential for perfect presentation of the food and desserts. In a busy environment it was important to stay calm and ensure there was clear communication with co-workers. 

McDonald's Crew Member
(September 2012 - June 2015)
Working at McDonalds has taught me some valuable skills, not only increasing my confidence but being able to remain calm whilst working in a busy environment. I have learnt excellent communication skills and work well within a team to ensure customer needs were met.

Education:

BA (Hons) Graphic Design
Leeds Arts University 
2015 - Present

I have learnt design principles and an understanding of typography and layout for both print and digital design. We are also encouraged to enter competitions to learn how to resolve live and client led briefs. I have made entries to D&AD, YCN, Starpack and Penguin Student Awards.

Foundation Year, Art & Design Diploma
Loughborough University
2014 - 2015

While on the course I was able to explore the different disciplines from Fine Art to 3D Design. This has allowed me to be more experimental and creative as I approach briefs from different aspects to determine the best solution/outcome.
