aboutI am currently working as a Graphic Designer with CAD and wayfinding specialities having studied Architecture at the University of Portsmouth. I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the course, especially Architectural Design and Urbanism, Sustainability and Architectural Technology. I also have interests in a broad range of design disciplines including typography and photography and working as a Graphic Designer has allowed me to hone my layout and presentation skills.

I take great pride in all I do and have a wide and varied skill set. I am considered to be both a sociable and hard-working individual who possesses a keen eye for detail and a logical approach to problem solving. In addition, I am capable of working successfully within a design team as well as on my own.

To whom this may concern,

Ryan worked for me in the capacity of studio executive during 2015 and 2016 responsible for creative design, artworking and resizing using corporate brand guidelines, visualisations and architectural modelling.

Ryan proved to be reliable and able to quickly fit into a busy team supplying on demand print to a large corporate customer.

I would consider Ryan’s technical strengths to lie in quickly understanding multi-item/multi-phase print projects and working with design guidelines.

Ryan’s gentle and polite manner is a strong asset which enables him to assimilate well into a team environment and also to attend client-facing meeting to take briefs. He is a strong listener and detailed note taker - attributes which gave me full confidence to trust Ryan to work directly and unsupported with clients.

Ryan is extremely honest and trustworthy and I have no hesitation in recommending him to you as potential employee.

Yours faithfully,

Dan CuttsKeyMT Southern Operations Director
