"I love working with Lex for two simple reasons. How easy it is to get ideas going, and how knowledgeable he is at making those ideas a reality. His portfolio will show you how visually stunning his work is, but it won’t tell you how Lex effortlessly implements fundamental design ideas and then uses creative tools to truly make them impactful either online or offline.
Anyone is lucky to work with this truly creative designer that is always striving to push the boundaries of what he can deliver to clients or colleagues alike."

"Lex is a rare breed. An exceptionally creative designer that understands and empathises with how a design will translate, be interacted with and perform in the real world. Not your traditional triple threat, but in the modern design world this level of understanding sets Lex apart.
Whenever a tough brief came in, I wouldn’t hesitate getting Lex involved from the outset. Nothing kicks him off his stride, nothing is too much trouble. Lex is a special guy, I genuinely can’t wait to work with him again. If you’re lucky enough to work with him, you’ll understand why."

"I had the pleasure of working with Lex over many years at Focusrite and he is a real asset to the company, both in the designs he creates and his work ethic. His work is always of the highest quality, with his attention to detail shining through. His ability to take briefs and bring them to life makes him such a reliable colleague to have in your Creative team.
I’ve worked with him on numerous projects, including designing stands for some of the biggest Pro Audio exhibitions in the world. The process was always effortless and the stands looked fantastic."

“Since Alex joined the Marketing Team, he has been astronomical to the outputs. Always supportive, Alex is fantastic at understanding the request and creating useful solutions that meet the requirement, as well as giving useful feedback for improvements. Incredible prioritisation, and very prompt to start each task and deliver it to a high standard.
A massive thank you to Alex for all of his work and support so far, I know our stakeholders are very impressed with each creative material Alex produces, and I always receive great feedback and thanks from our stakeholders and clients.”

“During his time on the team, Alex has quickly got stuck in. He understands the challenge that lies ahead for his role and he is enthusiastic and keen to help move us as an organisation forward. Alex has quickly grasped the many complexities of the organisation, and although this often means that he cannot plan to work as he would like, he has shown great flexibility and a willingness to adapt to ensure that we can deliver.
Alex has demonstrated a willingness to help and get involved, and has made himself invaluable to parts of the team already - and has ambitions to extend this involvement to other areas of the team.
Moving forward, we will need to work together to ensure that Alex can reach a balance of delivering against his own goals and helping other people with theirs!”

“During his time on the team, Alex has been working closely with the Marketing Campaigns team and created a set of adverts based on the You Belong Here campaign to further expand our reach.
These adverts are creative and imaginative and, importantly by being produced in-house, have demonstrated that Alex is more than capable of producing creative concepts that we would otherwise have to rely on agencies to work on — and equally as important, has saved the business a significant amount of budget in doing so.”
