Who is Daniel Longhurst?

As a passionate sportsman who loves to run in the rain, I draw motivation from learning new skills and feeling a sense of achievement.

In December 2023 I completed a Professional Diploma course in UX Design with UX Design Institute and am now a certified UX Designer. Learning how to identify and solve user problems through various research methods has taught me valuable new skills.

Currently I am working as a Freelance Graphic Designer for various companies throughout the UK in many industries; Manufacturing, Water Hygiene, Education, Corporates and Startups. My daily tasks involve creating graphic design documents for print and digital, social media adverts and email campaign marketing.

My customer focused and results driven mindset has allowed me to contribute to the growth and success of many companies and clients through digital, print and marketing channels with great ideas and my unique personal approach.

If you require a friendly professional designer who you can rely on to get the job done, then please get in touch.
