Teaching on both the BA (Hons) and HND design courses,
my specialisms focus on
typography, art direction and production across Graphics and User Experience Design.
I write course material for curriculum development, most recently contributing to our new BA (Hons) degree in Visual Communication
in conjunction with Kingston University London - Scotland's newest creative degree course.
I'm also involved in delivering our ground-breaking employer engagement program, and
have numerous tutor credits on award-winning work for D&AD, YCN and other important competitions for student designers.
Prior to lecturing, I worked for more than 10 years as a designer in Edinburgh and London - with agency, in-house and freelance roles in publishing,
computer games and digital design. I am a member of D&AD and a founding director
of award-winning experimental design group blueroom collective.
