Hey there and welcome to Rachilli! My name is Rachel and this is my personal portfolio.

Having completed a HND in Interactive Media at 19, a year earlier than most, I recently decided to take a risk and make a big jump into the industry.

I was 11 when I first discovered that I loved design. I remember seeing designs on websites and wondering how they were made. I started to learn how to code simple websites. Although I carried this on as a hobby, I didn't realise how strongly I wanted to work in design until I was 17. Having struggled in my first year at a sixth form, I decided I wanted to focus completely on design & enrolled on a HND Interactive Media course, where I was allowed to start the course a year early.

I am an extremely hard-working & dedicated person. Often I will work on a design until I am 100% happy with it, even if that means I am sometimes up til the early hours. I am quite the perfectionist and don't stop until I am happy with the way something turns out - whether that is when I'm writing, designing or coding. I am also massively passionate and eager to learn. I love to design, but when I'm not designing I love to read and to sing. I hoard fabric, felt and ribbon ready for whenever I am struck by a creative lightning, and I have a sewing machine at my side. Letting off steam in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is also one of my favourite pastimes.

I am also an active member of Creative Boom, where I also am one of a pair that runs the Manchester Social Boom.
I have already completed freelance work in both e-commerce website design, poster design and packaging design. To see previous examples of my work, please scroll up to the "Work" section above. There will soon be images of the freelance work that I have completed, including:
  • Poster work for the Disability Support Office at Manchester University
  • Packaging & e-commerce website design for E5 Beauty Limited, a cosmetics company
among more. As previously mentioned, I am also extremely dedicated, passionate and eager in what I do. So don't worry, you can feel confident when you hire me for a job.

The main services I offer are as follows:

  • Logo Design
  • Brand Identity
  • Website Design
  • E-Commerce Website Design
The main programs that I use include Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and Dreamweaver. I'm also learning more about InDesign, Flash and After Effects. I have worked with Photoshop for years. I use it when designing websites, retouching or editing photos and creating photo manipulations. I use Illustrator for everything logo & brand related, from the creation of logos to letterheads. Dreamweaver simply aids me in building beautiful, stylish & up to standard HTML & CSS websites. I can also use Flash to create simple flash websites or animations that you may want including in a website I build for you.
