Ellie tell me something you enjoy about working in brand design PR?

Working with clients who work in a diverse range of sectors. I love coming in one day to chat about the future of the fast-food dining experience and then chatting about how design can transform pharma the next!

What’s an exciting thing you‘ve noticed in brand design right now?

For me, I’ve seen far more brands embracing kitsch designs, maybe it’s the rise of BRAT summer or perhaps is the focus on brands tapping into the authenticity their audience is seeking now more than ever.

Share a piece of career advice that’s been helpful to you

Be personable.

If anything, your personality will be what carries you through life and being an approachable and friendly person goes a long way.

If you hadn’t worked in brand design PR what would you do?

I always wanted to live out my Elle Woods fantasy of becoming a lawyer but after my Law A-Level and 2 years of different work experience I decided it wasn’t for me.

But I was so close to studying it at uni! Bizarre to think how that would have turned out...

Thank you Ellie for sharing!
