Hi, I’m Cicely
I’ve designed for a range of industries including AI & robotics, healthcare & mental health, education & edtech, NGOs & human rights, film & events, coaching, sustainability & renewable energy, legal, travel & hospitality, fashion & e-commerce.
Raised by an artist and gardener in the English and Welsh countryside, I moved to Paris to study Art History and French Translation. My earlier career in copywriting and education in Vienna, Bangkok, and Berlin, eventually led me to the world of design where I now work on the north Portuguese coast.
From eight years of design experience, I find that the key to a successful project is great collaboration.

WHY HIRE A FREELANCER?

or bringing on an agency can be too much.
