I am a graphic designer and illustrator, who also does a good deal of web design. This makes me one of those creative people who is capable of working across media platforms.

I am proficient at using a number of industry standard software applications such as the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign). For web related work I also turn to: Dreamweaver, Notepad++, HTML 5, CSS3 and an array of browser plug-ins.

I am creative, organised and highly motivated. Recently, I have designed and developed the Country Holidays for Inner City Kids (CHICKS) charity website, with the support of the Bluestone360's team in Plymouth. CHICKS is a national charity that provides respite breaks to children from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Back in my current location (Manchester, UK), I have had the pleasure of doing some work for the great people at Rapport Events. They are an award winning agency that create effective solutions through event-led communication. The pace and energy in the run-up to an event is always so exhilarating.

I have also briefly been part of the Design & Development team at theEword, an SEO (search engine optimisation) agency based in Trafford Park. They are very much committed to driving web traffic to client websites, and helping them get to the top of search engine results.

In the little spare time that I have, I am involved with the Manchester Girl Geeks and like to attend industry related events. I find that it is a good way of keeping up to date in the ever changing design and digital landscape. Continual learning is important, and I enjoy expanding my knowledge base.

I'm currently busy brewing up some new creations. But if you've got a really interesting project you would like me to take a look at - please don't hesitate to get in touch by emailing: hello@angiechan.com
