With over 20 years working across design, campaigns and brand creative, I help businesses solve creative problems.

I work with brands at every stage, whether that's building a campaign from scratch, sharpening a visual identity or making something that needs to work harder actually work. Print, digital, environmental, I’ve done it all, and I bring strategic thinking alongside the craft to deliver it. 

All without the agency overhead.

Nice words from Lovely people.

I’ve been lucky enough to work with some talented folk. And even luckier to receive some kind words from them.

Luke Tonge
Director (Birmingham Design), Lecturer & Brand Designer

Matt, or Rookie as I know him, is a brilliant creative. I've had the pleasure to work with him numerous times over the past few years and he is the single most astute freelancer I know. He's enthusiastic, great fun to work with, adaptable, and always nails the work on time. Definitely a safe pair of hands ...if only he wasn't so in demand!

Sue Bown in
Managing Director at Severn Communications

Fresh-thinking, outstandingly creative and quick to get to the nub of the brief, Matt's ability to instil confidence and engage our clients in his vision is immense. Delivering effective yet imaginative solutions, he's always an absolute pleasure to work with.

Hayley Denise Coles
Deputy Leader and Cabinet Portfolio Leader - Communities & Culture, Staffordshire

Matt was our first point of contact for any high level projects or pitches that needed an art director/creative director to really focus the strategic ideas and creative direction.

He’s diligent, intelligent and a pleasure to work with. Matt brings something extra to the table with a 'creative' thought, route or angle and showed understanding and application across all industries.

I would recommend anyone getting Matt onboard on their project.

Steve Trow
Head of Marketing | Ex-Agency Owner | Making marketing work in operational businesses

I worked closely with Matt on several projects, and across several accounts, and his insightfulness coupled with his fresh creative thinking, meant that he was always able to get to the heart of the clients proposition and to provide outstanding creative results.

Reuben Boughton

Matt consistantly delivered high impact, high quality creative regardless of the size of project or media used. At Connect we always tried to get Matt involved at the earliest stage possible as we knew he would deliver outstanding results and add valuable ideas and insight into any project we might be working on.

Heather Hill
Director/Secretary at Hillsalive Solutions Limited

Original and innovative thinking, Matt always brings fresh ideas to the table. Solely responsible for all our adverts, logos, banners etc., we will continue to use Matthew time and time again.
