visual thinker

I am Martin Cassidy, a New Zealand born, London based Creative director & Graphic designer with 10 years of experience working across both digital and print projects. In that time I have built an impressive client list with both local and international brands. I am down-to-earth, like a good laugh and have an eye for detail. I have a head full of ideas and a natural passion for design which gives me a genuine enthusiasm for making information work for people.

For the past year I have been creative director of a small digital team and before arriving in the London I was self-employed running my own Graphic design business. As a result my skills cover the many "typical agency" disciplines involved in taking projects from brief to completion and meeting deadlines & budget and I have been client services, creative team and finished artist not to mention print broker, proof reader and tea lady.
