On the buses

My time at Interbrand

Two months and a fair few train tickets later my two months at Interbrand have flown by!

Whilst there, I was involved in work for several global brands at various stages - from research to development.

I am now getting on with some freelance jobs while I search for either a full-time job or more placements.
