Well, job hunting round two is about to start and I am completely prepared! My website is finished (aside from my randomly shrinking nav bar! ^_- ) my new CV is up to date and I am completely and mentally prepared for whatever is about to get thrown at me… all I need now is a job.

That shouldn’t be so hard right? I mean its only taken me this long to re-ready myself! Download a new copy of my CV here

Wish me luck everyone, and lets hope that “how young I look” doesn’t get dragged into my employability this time. Remember all you wonderfully talented designers out there, skills first then looks. (Can you tell I’m bitter about this? /sigh!)

A round of applause please, www.likeyougiveadamn.com version two is online and finished!

I have loads of new ideas which will be up and ready in no time at all and i am feeling pretty good about the work situation, I am officially ready to start applying for jobs again now that I’m not ashamed of my website!

And now that I have this new content managed, ridiculously easy to update website thanks to the miracle worker that is George, (Again, I can’t thank you enough, so I will just keep linking you instead!) I will be able to fill it with new work in no time, starting this week.

Expect to see sketches and drafts of some design loveliness in the next few days.

Incase you haven’t noticed… my website is undergoing a birthday facelift, yes, my site has a birthday and its also on my birthday too! The blog hasn’t been ripped apart yet aside from the lack of background image!

It will be finished by the end of this week and new content will be available from then onwards, i hope you enjoy looking at it as much as i have enjoyed designing it… Thanks to George for actualising my *vision*! Where would i be without your creative genius?

I will of course update the blog when everything is finished.

I think I’ve made an indirect decision about my professional career over the past month. I had so much fun when I went to my interview at RedHouseLane (the magazine company in Tottenham Court Road) the environment was so inspiring that when I went home I just wanted to design magazines… so thats what I’ve been doing in my spare time since then, and now I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be happy doing anything else that doesn’t involve some form of layout design.

So anyway here is what I’ve been working on recently, I’ll be adding them to my portfolio website as soon as i can.
