About me
I'm a 26 year old Interactive Designer and some-time Illustrator from London, UK. I have designed and built websites for a diverse range of audiences and clients from children's television companies such as Nickelodeon and Disney Channel to property developers like Boxmill and Clarence Dock. Please explore my portfolio to learn more about my work and feel free to drop me a line if you think we can work together. When I'm not designing things I'm a singer/songwriter, playing under the name Naomi Hates Humans. I'm also a blue belt at kickboxing. So you know, don't mess.
