ORBIT CROCHET

ORBIT is a crochet business that I run and manage entirely on my own. From making the clothes, to branding and marketing them, to shipping off sales to customers and organising the finances. It is a very fulfilling creative outlet for me which has allowed me to strengthen my skills in marketing and design.

For this series of info-graphics, I wanted the information to be displayed clearly, whilst keeping the graphics playful and to the ORBIT branding.

CONTENT CREATION

RUBYMOON GYMTOSWIM

From July - December 2021, I interned as a Marketing and Communications manager at RubyMoon GymToSwim, a sustainable swimwear brand. This was working alongside a very small team, at times just me and the owner of the company. Therefore, this role was very varied and I took a leading role in marketing. Below are a series of blog posts, newsletters, videos and designs I produced during my time there.
