Epoch
Academy Day

Bristol, UKI was invited along with 30 other students from across the UK to take part of Epoch’s Academy Day. The day consisted of taking a well-known but stagnant brand, and re-strategising it to appeal to a new audience. There was also free food, so that’s a massive plus.
Studio Kiln
Internship
Jul — Aug 2023
Penryn, UKWorking alongside Creative Directors Charlie Hocking and Nathan Smith, I developed the visitor publication guide for the 2023 RTS Cambridge Convention ‘Too Much To Watch‘ (featured in ItsNiceThat, Brand New, Creative Boom). The publication required a keen attention to detail, awareness of print production, and an understanding of typographic standards. I’m proud to have contributed to a publication that guided and informed over 350 industry leaders.
I played a role in the evolution of Alexander, an award-winning long-form audiobook platform featuring original stories from celebrated writers, narrated by academy acclaimed talent. Recognising the challenge of designing visuals for an audio-first medium, we developed a flexible design system that celebrates authors, narrators, and guests. The system leverages bold typography with a selection of motion pieces to foster the platform as an audio-first experience.
