Designer,

Creative.
I’m a Creative Art Director and Designer based in London. For over 12 years I’ve been focused on turning strategic ideas into high-impact visual design both in-house and with industry-leading agencies. I’ve worked with brands including Nike, Coca-Cola, Chase Bank, Instagram, Starbucks, Amazon, McDonald’s, Google, and Adobe.
My current role is Creative Lead on Adobe at Dentsu Creative. Positioned within the Advertising industry, I personally create material for Adobe on a daily basis, either using tools to do so myself or Art Directing team members. This extends to television commercials, print and digital advertisements, brand identities, event and other marketing materials.
Prior to my current position I worked in-house for Adobe, Instagram, Chase Bank and Amazon as a hybrid Art Director/Designer, working within their in-house studios to produce work for Marketing, Social and Events teams. I also worked for various top Advertising and Creative agencies producing work for brands like Google, Pfizer, Samsung, Ribena, Coca Cola, Vodafone, Meta, Emirates, Swisse, TGIF, Guinness, Baileys, Unilever, Breast Cancer Now, Tanqueray and more.
Not only have I worked within the B2C sector, but also within the B2B. Some of the industries I’ve worked in include FMCG, Healthcare & Pharma, Wellness, Fashion & Retail, Banking & Finance, Tech, Luxury Goods, Sport, NFPOs, Automobiles, and more.
Word of mouth
Julia designed and art directed key creative pieces as part of her role as the Designer for Instagram EMEA. During that time Julia demonstrated leadership, creativity, passion for her work and the ability to work autonomously. It was really lovely working and managing Julia during her time at Instagram and I recommend her skills as a Designer and Art Director to anyone that hires her.

Julia was great, she completed the brief given to her on time and it was exactly what we needed. It was a pleasure having her in YJ HQ.

The standard of work was excellent. At the last minute, she stepped into a complex job with a tight deadline and she delivered the work to a really high standard. She also integrated into the team quickly and became a well respected voice in creative discussions. Would love to have the opportunity to work with Julia again.

We've booked Julia on several projects now and will undoubtedly be looking to have her back again soon. Not only is she a highly skilled and capable designer, but her art direction and conceptional abilities mean we can let her creatively lead work, always elevating it exponentially. She is a delight to have in the office and has been a huge support to the teams she's worked with, especially the mentoring and guidance given to juniors around her. We eagerly await her next stint.
