Hello

Nice to meet you!

I’m Marc!

I am a friendly, highly motivated, enthusiastic and creative person who has graduated from Robert Gordon University, Gray’s School of Art, with a BA in Communication Design. I have higher education administration experience and knowledge within marketing, advertising, graphic design and customer service skills.

I am actively seeking new opportunities for career development, both within the design industry, Gaming, Digital Marketing and elsewhere within general administrative and customer-facing roles.

The Communication Design course allowed me to explore Graphic Design, Illustration and Photography within a studio-based collaborative practice and also in a critical and theoretical capacity. This has provided me with the experience of working with clients in a professional manner as well as working on a variety of live projects within Marketing, Advertising and Branding. It has also given me the experience of working in a fast-paced studio environment whilst ensuring that strict deadlines are always met - which has proven vital when working with clients and collaborating with other professionals.

Working on multiple design projects has enabled me to gain administration experience by liaising with clients, organizing events and exhibitions, organizing appointments and meetings. Technology and IT knowledge is a fundamental component of the Communication Design course, which has allowed me to gain an expansive knowledge of Adobe Software and the MS Office Suite. The course also aided me in exploring the many marketing concepts and techniques that play a vital role in making a professional social media presence successful.

As part of this course I participated in the Erasmus+ programme, by undertaking a study-abroad module at Hochschule Hannover. This allowed me to embrace a completely different culture and experience my chosen subject from a different perspective as well as enhance my understanding of public engagement by collaborating with my cohort on organising an exhibition (Konnektor Gallery). This experience proved vital in helping to organise another exhibition in the final year of my degree (Flux: Erasmus+ Exhibition).

Combining this with my experience within Higher Education Administration and Customer Service positions has broadened my understanding of administrative methods, interpersonal skills and ability to tackle difficult situations.
