Matt works on everything design related including branding print design and web design. With over 5 years of experience in graphic designer Matt was previously an in-house designer at an agency and has been a graphic designer with HeX since 2017. Matt is driven and determined keeps fit and active and unwinds in the gym after a busy day. He admires self driven people who dont gloat too much.
Im a graphic designer with over five years experience and Ive worked for HeX for a year or so now. I started off designing in college where I took a general art and design course. After developing an interest in design I took this onto higher education where I studied Graphic Design at Derby University. I have been hired by numerous agencies and businesses to do graphic design which has lead to me being sat where I am now in the HeX office.
Personally I love sport gym football and keeping active in any way I can. Im also a bit of a book worm – I love reading self-improvement and business related books as well as great fiction books such as Harry Potter (the first series of books I read) but you cant beat Lord of the Rings! Im also fond of a good TV series Spartacus Dexter and Stranger Things are some of my favourites.
After struggling to get up in a morning I either travel to the office or work from the comfort of home. I design anything that needs designing which can be a whole host of things from promotional adverts to websites to client business cards. Then I like nothing better than to wind-down at the gym which is massive for me as I can break that pattern of thought and open my mind.
Theres no one I want to base my life on – I aspire to take different traits from different people. Sports wise I think David Beckham is a great man to follow he does loads of charity work hes great at what he does but also a fantastic family man. Business wise I look up to people who have built their business from the ground up from hard work and graft.
I pride myself on my design skills of course but I think something that people dont know about is my discipline and determination. At school I could have been a lot more driven but when I left I realised I had under performed and that spurred me onward to become a very driven person.
Everything meat. No veg. When youve got a pizza theres no cop out: bacon meatballs sausage chicken pepperoni and not those thin stone baked ones…its deep pan all the way!
My number one pet peeve in business is lack of drive especially if its someone Im working with. Second one would be cutting corners if I work on a job I expect it to be done thoroughly people who Ive worked with previously have tended to scrimp on quality and save time.
From a personal point of view its attention seeking. Theres a fine line between this and self-promotion but when people cant help talking about themselves I normally tend to shut off and not tolerate it.
Argentina. A friend of mine went travelling there and the culture looks amazing and so does the weather! They also love their steak out there – which is a big draw! They like their wine too which Im not too fond of – but I wouldnt be against taking some wine-tasting lessons. I could also take some Tango lessons to be honest and learn how to dance! Everything about it Argentina is definitely on the bucket list.
I dont normally throw this in peoples faces – but mine is theres always a way which I always tell myself. When Ive got a mental block or Im faced with a challenge there is always a way. Ive always found a way – with everything. Its always been a personal and private one – but not so private anymore!
