    Technetix is a rapidly growing global organisation that

    assists some of the largest internet service providers

    in the world in operation by supplying a huge range of

    network related products.

    Employed as an in house designer, Ive worked on a

    wide range of briefs including design and administration

    of the new website, trade show stand design, print

    advertising and digital communications as well as being

    heavily involved in conceptual marketing meetings.

    This YCN Student Design Award winning design was

    created for the world famous Reading/Leeds festival.

    It is an online interface that gives festival attendees

    an opportunity to get involved with the running of the

    festival more than ever before.

    The aim of the brief was to create an almost tribal

    attachment to the festival and improve customer loyalty

    as a result.

    My nal project at UAL was a self initiated project.

    I questioned whether Googles social networking

    platform, Google+ should be deemed a success and

    looked at ways they could enhance their service.

    One of my ideas as to create a desktop personal

    assistant based on the Android Google Now plat-

    form- a service bespoke to the user that creates alerts

    and makes suggestions based on a users interests or

    browing habits.

    As part of a collaboration amongst other designers at

    University, we undertook a brief which attempted to

    make libraries appeal to 8-12 year old children.

    Our project was done in connection with the Barbicans

    Childrens Library and involved was givenan activity

    book and treasure map. We produced illustrations thatwere linked to various sections of the library, which

    were addressed in the book.

    Download Festival is the third largest music festival

    in the UK in terms of attendance. In 2010, 120,000

    rock and metal fans attended and that year I won a

    competition to design a t-shirt for them.
