Graphic Designer/Owner at Grafica London
London, United Kingdom
• designer for print with over ten years experience, designed everything from logos to books, but I'm happy to tackle anything.
• Web designer for over seven years, specialising in html, css, javascript, php and cms. I put a particular emphasis on creating standards compliant websites. I can also design using flash, but I'd really recommend against it.
• I've also designed environmental graphics (signing, wayfinding) and exhibitions (the 50th anniversary Peanuts exhibition in London was a favourite of mine).
• I'm a published author, with expertise in writing about comics, Apple, graphic design and technology. I've written for a number of UK and US magazines, and I'm the co-author of two books on comics.
• I've also been a publisher and editor for a small house publishing comics in two languages.

1997 — 2001 (4 years)
I was one of the co-founders of this cartoonist collective/publishing house that published a magazine, Le Roquet, and four Graphic Novels in both English and French. Sadly it didn't last, but it was fun while it was going, and we created books that I'm extremely proud of my involvement in.
