About me
Profile
I'm Shane, a freelance Art Director, Designer and Creative.
I'm a multi-disciplined, curious and enthusiastic designer, with an eye for crafting bold and beautiful visuals. I’m passionate about great ideas, but most importantly, dedicated to making them happen.
As a hard grafter and keen problem solver, I thrive in sharing my experience, infectious energy, and give-a-shit attitude to get the best out of my team, and any brief that's thrown my way.
Over the last 12 years, I have worked for a range of creative businesses, from large advertising networks to smaller independent agencies.
I’ve since had the pleasure of working with some of the world’s biggest brands - from finance to beauty.
I've provided conceptual thinking, art direction, and creative solutions, across a mix of campaign, branding, digital, content, and social briefs.
Passionate about the next generation of designers, I also lecture at Norwich University of Arts, part-time.
In a nutshell, I'm able to think, make, and manage design projects and design teams.
