EMPLOYEE PROFILE
This time it is the turn of Craig, one of our graphic design team to tell us a bit about himself…
How long have you worked for Barconwood and what does your job entail
I have worked as a Graphic Artworker at Barconwood for just over 4 years now. I’m responsible for the design and layout of signage and various POS items to suit the clients needs and then creating photo renders of what finished sites will look like with all the new items in place.
What do you most enjoy about your job?
The chance to be creative and seeing the things I design become a finished product. Positive feedback from the clients is always a bonus too.
Tell us a bit about yourself.
I live in Norwich with my girlfriend Jade and our dog called Beaumont. My big passion is Motocross. I started racing when I was 15 and I still ride from time to time. My other sporting interest is the NFL (American Football), specifically the LA Chargers. I can play drums, guitar and I once won an award for comedy writing which I will tell anyone about, as soon as I get the chance.
Where did you grow up? Go to school?
I was born and raised in Norwich where I went to Blyth-Jex School. I graduated from Norwich University of the Arts with a degree in Graphic Design in 2003
Who are your heroes?
Jeremy McGrath (Motocross Legend)
Troy Lee (Design Legend)
What’s your idea of a perfect day?
Riding some motocross in the morning followed by a few craft beers and good food with friends and the pooch.
