I started work at an early age, learning all areas of the business. I’m the youngest member of the team, even though at times i’m mistaken to be the eldest (it’s the beard, I promise!). I pride myself on ‘getting the job done’ in an unflappable manner. My geek-ish love for Apple’s innovations ensures that the business is always at the forefront of all technology. Out of work I like to keep fit by being punched in the face at kick boxing, running and the challenges of cold & muddy obstacle courses.

My childhood was spent dismantling things to try and put them back together more efficiently, and with a cardboard engineer for a father I guess it was inevitable I would end up in a creative roll. Combining experience, patience and luck I managed to escape from the restraints of company politics and now enjoy sharing my knowledge, experience and creativity with our customers. Away from work my inquisitive nature is kept in check tinkering with motorbikes and an old camper van that has its eyes set on any spare money I ever get my hands on.

Coming from a repro background, I handle most of the artwork that comes into the studio, I also get involved in production and I’m part of the installation team. When not in work, I enjoy exposing myself to the elements on top of a wind-swept mountain or hanging on for dear life on some secluded rock-face. During the summer months I like to drag my little caravan and my wife (and maybe even the kids) to as many festivals as I possibly can.

I am the Finance Director of Insight Print Media. I have over 30 years’ experience of running small to medium sized businesses with the ultimate responsibility for all financial and administrative matters. My first appointment as Finance Director of a Company was in 1983. I am a commercially minded Accountant with a background in Manufacturing and Service Industries with a determined and positive attitude to make a difference in everything I do. I bring a wealth of experience to the table in how to run a medium sized business.

After graduating uni, my first job was within designing for publications. After a couple of years of cutting my teeth I moved into designing for point of sale which has allowed me to use my 3D design and traditional design capabilities to the max. I’m never happy unless I know a piece of work it is spot on, and what the client is expecting! I like to take problems and solve them with a methodical approach! My ethos is to learn something new every day! Even if it is the littlest thing. When I’m not designing I like to take in a movie or just enjoy a walk with the other half. But my mind is always ticking over from any inspiration I may get!

The newest member of the team started in July 2017. My background is in reprographics and digital printing, bringing a full range of technical & production abilities to the table.

I will be helping in the smooth running of the business along with pre-press artworking, printing and liaising with clients. My reputation is built on trust and honesty and have always put the client first.

When not working I enjoy joinery and making things from wood along with walking my lurcher and riding around aimlessly on my motor scooter.

With over 13 years experience within the print trade, my main role is to manage the complex print machines ensuring a seamless transition from design to production. Being part of a close team also ensures I’m involved in other aspects of the business such as installation and finishing.

Outside of work I like to keep fit. I train regularly at a local gym, and like to help others keep fit by writing exercise programmes. I also enjoy martial arts, snowboarding and pretty much anything else physical that tickles my fancy.
