Hi I'm Matt, a multi-disciplined creative that can be found between London and Lisbon. After leaving my role as Marketing Manager for London gym chain Gymbox, I co-founded the biggest combat events company in London, The White Collar Fight Club whic gave me the time I needed to focus my passion for design.
After attending the renowned design school Shillington College, I began my Graphic Design journey and have not looked back since.

Thought of the day
“I've always considered myself as a 'Jack of all trades,' which up until recently sat uncomfortably with me, especially with the 'master of none' tagline.’ However, I've come to realise that this label makes me versatile and adaptable. It means effortlessly switching between different roles, tackling diverse challenges, and bringing a well-rounded skill set to the table. Thriving across diverse areas fuels continuous learning for a dynamic professional journey. Being a versatile 'Jack of all' in a world valuing adaptability is my key to meaningful contributions in various projects.”
Brand
IdentitY
Think of brand identity as your business's unique story – it's not just a logo, but the colours, images, and vibe that set you apart. Consistency in this story builds trust, creating a genuine connection with customers and making your brand memorable. It's not just about what you sell; it's the story you tell, making your business not just a choice but a connection.

PITCH DECK DESIGN
In business, a killer pitch deck is like your secret weapon. It's not just about looking good; it's your chance to shine and make a lasting impression. A well-designed deck isn't just eye candy; it's a powerful tool to simplify complex ideas, show off your professionalism, and keep everyone hooked. Think of it as your story – clear, compelling, and leaving a mark. In the hustle of business, where every second counts, a polished presentation can be the game-changer, helping you seal the deal, win over investors, and stand out in the crowd.

direction
Creative direction is like the guiding light for the look and feel of a project, making sure everything clicks with the envisioned vibe. It's about overseeing the creative elements, from visuals to messaging, to tell a unified and compelling story. As a creative director, I set the tone and style, working with teams to ensure we stay true to the essence of the brand or project. It's my job to turn ideas into visually striking and emotionally resonant outcomes, steering the creative journey to connect with the audience and make the impact we're aiming for.
Website
DESIGN
A killer website isn't just about looking good – it's your digital storefront and the first handshake with potential customers. A well-designed, user-friendly site isn't a luxury; it's a necessity. It's like inviting someone into a well-organised, welcoming shop rather than a confusing maze. A smooth user experience builds trust and credibility, turning visitors into customers and keeping them coming back. In a crowded online world, a website that nails both design and user-friendliness isn't just an asset; it's a statement of commitment to excellence, playing a crucial role in the success and reputation of your business.
