Me at the V&A's Decode exhibit.
Should not have worn that bulky sweater.
A little about Me.
Hi, I am Michelle French: a graphic designer, art director, reluctant illustrator, painter, storyteller, amateur architect, possessed gardener, former Girl Scout, Social Media Maven, and life partner to a canine.
I specialize in the design of corporate/brand identities and the integration and implementation of the brand aesthetic.
I blog a bit about design and I tweet, but not as much as you would think.
My career as a graphic designer has been rich and varied. I have started lying about my age—because I can—so let’s not do the math as to how long. I sing and tap dance. Badly. If you pay me—I won’t!
To go back to the Girl Scout thing: I’m honest (well, except for the age thing), trustworthy, friend to all, kind to animals, loyal, cheerful(ish), thrifty, courteous, but that “clean in thought, word and deed” went out the window a long time ago.
Here is my current CV, including attitude. Apologies. I can send the straight-up version if you need a proper one.
In December 2009, I completed an MA Graphic Design at London College of Communications, University of the Arts London.
Now I am looking for a full-time or contract position in the UK, as well as opportunities for lecturing and training.
