Brand & Identity — Lucky Luke

A logo for a custom bike company in Poland, named after the old cartoon cowboy — cowboys carried a rabbit's foot for luck, so the mark plays on lucky for Luke, not so lucky for the rabbit.

About

Newry, Northern Ireland

"Design isn't about ego. It's about solving real business problems and making complex ideas feel simple, fresh, and market-ready."

Currently

I lead creative direction for a large food-to-go manufacturer, bridging the gap between a great creative concept and commercial reality — launching new product ranges, art directing trade-show stands, and building integrated digital campaigns.

A Slightly Different Background

A decade spearheading corporate branding and internal communications at PwC in Dublin taught me how to manage large-scale brand systems and work comfortably alongside senior leadership. I later stepped away to establish and run my own personal training business — hands-on experience in operations, client management and commercial strategy that still informs how I lead teams and creative projects today.

How I Work

Clear communication and smooth process, whether mentoring a team, collaborating with R&D on packaging, or coordinating external print and structural build partners. The goal: keep things grounded, efficient, and aligned with the bigger picture — from a rough initial sketch to a major rollout.

01Creative Brand Management

Leading visual direction, shaping cross-functional campaigns, and aligning design with customer insights.

02Brand & Packaging Systems

Developing comprehensive visual languages, logos, typography, and functional retail packaging.

03Food Photography & Art Direction

Composing, lighting, and styling premium imagery that elevates commercial product lines.

04Spatial & Exhibition Design

Translating digital brand identities into high-impact, physical 3D spaces for trade shows.

05Bespoke Illustration

Bringing custom, hand-crafted artwork to commercial projects to give them a distinctive human touch.

Service — Web Design

Websites for businesses that need clarity, not complexity.

Fixed one-time build fees, three clear tiers, and a site you fully own from day one — no lock-in, no surprise monthly costs unless you want ongoing support.

Work With Me

Currently Taking On Projects

Straightforward process. No jargon, no scope creep — just a clear brief, honest timelines, and work built to last past the first review.

Whether it's a full brand system, a new website, or a single stand-out asset for an existing brand, you work directly with the designer from first sketch to final file — no account managers in between.

01Brief

A quick call or email to get to the heart of what the project needs to achieve, for who, and by when.

02Concept

Initial directions grounded in the brand's reality — not moodboard fantasy. You'll see the thinking, not just the visuals.

03Production

The chosen direction taken through to final, production-ready files — print, web, or physical build.

04Delivery

Clean handover with everything you need to use the work immediately, plus guidance on how to keep it consistent.
