Bella, a lover of brews and all things Animal Crossing is a recent graduate in the eventful year of 2020. During her time at UCLan Preston, Bella completed several placements both up North and down South and topped it off with a first class honours degree.

Bella’s work is consistently centred around intriguing concepts and ideas that are then supported by a beautiful execution and attention to detail. Including her project, 'Destruction Workers' which won bronze in this year's Creative Conscience Awards.

Bella’s currently on placement at Waste creative (after winning their placement competition), with a few more in the pipeline and she’d be a wonderful addition to any creative team.

Becky couldn’t wait until she’d graduated to begin her career in design, so she started it whilst she was at Uni. Setting up a small independent design practice called smokytoast with a friend during her placement year, she quickly gained a wide array of clients from the dating app Tinder, to a sustainability-conscious clothing company that sources materials from Italy. She never wants to focus on one part of design, and instead enjoys the entire process from concept creation to sourcing a supplier for window stickers. She likes to help any kind of business and prides herself on her ability to adapt to any industry be it food and drink start-ups or multi-national financial services.

More recently she has taken steps towards her dream of helping conserve nature, by beginning a degree in Wildlife Conservation. Alongside this degree she is passionate about keeping her design skills alive by working pro-bono for a selection of charities that need design help. Finally, she is also one of the founding Trustees of a grant-making charitable foundation set-up to fund worthwhile causes within Wildlife Conservation.
