KAREN SIMPSON
I'm Karen, a highly skilled digital designer currently leading a small team at Joi Polloi in the heart of Sheffield. With nearly 20 years of professional experience, I’ve worked on a broad range of projects for a diverse set of clients, including small indies, big blue chips, educational institutions and, more recently, entertainment and media. The work produced by our team has won numerous awards, including, most prestigiously, two BAFTAs.
