Since May 2006 I have been working at an advertising agency (Passion for Creative) based in Waterford, Ireland. Whilst there I was involved in every aspect of the development of the business. Since joining we expanded in to a larger office with two new directors and when I left we were looking to expand further.
Whilst at Passion for Creative I was responsible for all multimedia work and was involved in every project since then, covering complete branding of new companies, re-branding of existing companies, store layouts, web sites, tv & press advertising and full marketing strategies, often dealing with the client at every stage, including initial meetings and presentations to final sign off.
I gained tremendous amounts of invaluable experience from the moment I arrived in Ireland and I resurrected my confidence in my own design work and within two years I expanded on my skills of video and web design to include various elements of print design.
Unfortunately I realised how much I missed the big city lifestyle and culture. Therefore, this June I moved back to Manchester to use and develop my skills to push my career to the next level.
