Julia Patrick is design lead at Borne – a creative agency that resides at the intersection of advertising and branding. With roots in the fashion world, Julia has over 15 years of experience in design and art direction, working with world-renowned brands such as Chanel, Selfridges, Farfetch and ASOS.
