Drop me an email if you have anything press or PR related: 21andsensory@gmail.com I’m always keen to get involved in new opportunities.
I currently work full-time as a Graphic Designer (in-house at a tech company) although I am open for paid freelance work and commissions every so often so feel free to drop me an email should you want me to work on something. (I will have a look at requests on a case-by-case basis and get back to you!)
