"About Me:
I'm Simon, and I've spent 25+ years actually using Adobe Creative Suite in real production environments—not just teaching it from a textbook. Since 1998,
I've been the person companies rely on when designs need to work perfectly in the real world.
What makes my teaching different? I show you how professionals actually work. No fluff, no outdated techniques—just the skills that matter in today's creative industries.
My Professional Background:
Current: ADA signage design specialist working with UV printing, laser engraving, and CNC
10 years: Automotive design creating textures and prints for major car manufacturers (OEM level)
Screen printing expert: Ran DTG departments, specialized in color separation for production
Advanced automation: I write scripts to automate repetitive tasks—I can teach you this too
What I Teach:
Adobe Creative Suite
Illustrator (my specialty - I've used it professionally for 20+ years)
Photoshop for print production and design
Real production workflows, not just button-pushing
Color theory that actually works in manufacturing
Automation techniques for advanced students
Music Instruction
Guitar and bass (beginner through intermediate)
Practical playing focused on songs you want to learn
Music industry insights from hosting 150 episodes of my podcast "Music On Your Own Terms"
Gear knowledge (effects pedals, tone shaping)
My Teaching Style:
I'm patient, practical, and I explain the "why" behind everything. Students tell me they appreciate learning from someone who's solved real-world design problems for decades, not just academic exercises. Whether you're a college student struggling with assignments, a professional looking to upskill, or a hobbyist wanting to learn guitar, I'll meet you where you are.
Fun fact: I'm originally from the UK, so you'll have to excuse the accent!
