approaches to solving briefs. His work was
shortlisted for the RSA 2016 Student Awards
- the first time a Napier student has managed
that in nine years. Hes been the sort of student
that makes his tutors look good.

Diarmuid spent almost two months at The
Union working on a broad range of briefs and
challenges. He was enthusiastic, conscientious
and a great listener. His skills at both storytell-
ing and capturing those stories through scripts,
sketches and storyboards help his ideas leap
off the page.
