Hi, I’m Rob.

Design is my passion, hobby and career all rolled into one – and with experience across every imaginable format (from sheet to screen) I pride myself on my ability to deliver the goods on any brief.

After four years’ study to obtain a degree in Photography, I decided that a career as a full-time commercial photographer was not for me. I obtained my MA in Creative Digital Media (First Class Hons) from DIT in 2011 and since then I’ve been privileged to work with a wide variety of class leading brands and clients on a hugely varied selection of design briefs across web and app design, graphic design, email marketing and much more.

In late 2020 I took advantage of the free evenings afforded by Covid-19 Pandemic by returning to college to complete a Higher Diploma in Interaction Design via DCU’s online Springboard program. I have always been an advocate for improving user experience in digital applications, and achieving this qualification allowed me to develop my user experience and research skills in a formal setting.

The bulk of my professional experience comes from working in fast paced ecommerce environments but I have plenty of experience working with traditional sales teams too – my skillset combines design and marketing and I’m equally at ease talking to stakeholders at any level in either setting.

Why not see what I can do for you?
