Ni means ‘daughter of’ in Irish, like O’ means ‘son of’.

About me

I am a freelance art director in Scotland with industry experience in:

My background is in graphic design & advertising, working at the award-winning creative agency ‘Story’ in Edinburgh.

"I was lucky to have Roisin work with me on presentation of stage shows, television scripts  and a series of small illustrated books. She is a real talent with terrific sense of style and discernment.

She has a rare combination of abilities - from script formatting and text editing to all kinds of visual work. Designing, art directing, compositing layouts - she does it all with élan and supreme efficiency.

Modest as she is  clever - in multiple directions - she is an all excellent person to work with, and good company to boot."
