Hello?!%
I'm an AOI World Illustration Award winning illustrator and graphic designer, working with pencil and cursor, on tablet and screen, in pixels and vectors, having the freedom to create a wide range of solutions for every project.

As an illustrator and graphic designer with ten years' experience in the profession and seven years in design education — I hold an M.Des. in Illustration from the Glasgow School of Art and an MA in Graphic Design from the Hungarian University of Fine Arts — I help businesses stand out on the market with quality, unique illustration, branding, packaging and pattern designs. I have wonderful clients all over the world, from Budapest through to Glasgow and New York.
Alongside my design illustration career, I love working on picture book projects. I was honoured to be selected for the Edinburgh-based Picturehooks Mentorship Programme as Kate McEwen’s mentee.
I am also a member of the Association of Illustrators and a co-founder of the award-winning Classmate Studio, where we run a Domestica course teaching branding and how to run an online creative business. Just to include some unrelated information, my name means 'Highlander', which probably explains why I am happiest when I spend time in the Scottish Highlands. I also enthusiastically practice the art of motherhood while running a design studio.
