Designer – Branding Specialist –

Hello! I’m Sara, a designer specialising in branding and image creation. Passionate about bringing ideas to life—fuelled by creativity, curiosity, a sunny outlook (and plenty of coffee!).

I started my working life in top design studios, where I honed my craft before taking the leap into freelance. These days, I team up with agencies and work directly with clients from all sorts of industries.

My approach is simple: people come first. No egos—just genuine connection, collaboration, and creativity.

I’m a big believer in staying curious and always learning, which is what inspired me to earn a recent Master’s in Graphic Design (Distinction). For me, growth and great work go hand in hand (and make life a lot more interesting, too!).

Over the years, I’ve worked with brands like BBC Radio 1, Coca-Cola, Future Publishing, Ministry of Sound, Nottingham Trent University, Nottingham City Council, Orion Publishing Group, Speedo—and more!

Enough about me—let’s talk about you! If you have a project or idea in mind, I’d love to hear from you.
