design has always been a huge part of my life. I love art, colour, drawing + typography. I design on my imac, with itunes on shuffle and my iphone by my side «end apple ad here». I'm constantly critiquing design when I'm out + about (it just comes natural to pick up on bad menu designs). I love finding new inspirational sites and a couple of my faves right now are ffffound and bestwebgallery. DESIGN BELIEFS always exceed expectations. enhance simple, stylish designs with plenty of colour. ALWAYS USE GREAT TYPOGRAPHY (bad typography can ruin a job). never use templates, all of my work is 100% original (bespoke design is best). provide friendly + courteous service. find new design inspiration sources daily. deliver design work yesterday (it's my no. 1 request). spellcheck. get a fresh pair of eyes to check all work before sending to print. IN A NUTSHELL I'm happily-married, internet-obsessed (shopping and surfing), multi-tasking, coffee-addicted, gym-goer, sunshine-basker, dream-rememberer, and occassional-winner-of-things. you'll notice I put things in parenthesise (a little too much) and I'm trying to learn portuguese over at busuu. big fan of both acupuncture + meditation. DESIGN SKILLS advanced graphic design diploma (with distinction) mac + PC • CS5 photoshop/illustrator/indesign/acrobat/dreamweaver all print design + web design including front end coding (HTML, CSS, flash) and e-marketing EBOOK AUTHOR I have collaborated on some ebooks with Peter Deegan. check out some of the titles over here. WHY MJPIX? mjpix is a name I came up with back in 1997 when I first registered my domain. the mj part should be obvious, and "pix" is short for "pixels".
