ABOUT ME
Hi! Im Alicia,
Hi there, I'm Alicia Cuckston, a passionate and contemporary designer based in South West England. My journey with graphic design started with a work experience at Walford Mill Craft Centre in Wimborne, and since then, I've been continuously enhancing my skills and exploring new media.
My design philosophy is rooted in creating work that makes a positive impact on the world. I specialise in branding, UI/UX design, print, and digital marketing, and I'm particularly passionate about designing for good and the environment. I believe that design can be a powerful force for change, and I'm committed to using my skills to create work that inspires and informs.
As a recent graduate from Arts University Bournemouth, I'm eager to take on new challenges and collaborate with clients who share my values. I have a curious and self-learning approach to design, and I'm always looking for new ways to push the boundaries and create innovative solutions.
When I'm not designing, you can usually find me exploring the beautiful Dorset coastline or indulging in my other passion - cooking. I love experimenting with new health foods and flavours, and I find that the creativity and experimentation that goes into cooking inspires my work as a designer.
If you're interested in working together or have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you!
