Meet the Team

Our products benefit from the enthusiasm, imagination, and innovation of our friendly and professional team. The pride we take in our work encourages us to continue to improve and advance our efforts to help artists, which in turn means that our products will continue to go from strength to strength.

Simon Morse, Studio Manager

Simon’s love of books and lifelong interest in art mean that every day he wakes up looking forward to the working day ahead of him. A continual desire to understand and appreciate the content that 3dtotal publish has led to him trying his hand at many traditional and digital art forms. When he’s not at work, Simon will be found with his two amazing children, either drawing, painting or building a fort.

Joseph Cartwright, Lead Designer

In 2016, Joe joined the 3dtotal family full time. Among the many things he enjoys about his job, he particularly loves working closely with some of today’s greatest artists. At home, Joe likes woodworking, listening to records, and good puns, but he knows where to draw the line.

Rhiannon Joseph, Lead Editor

Rhee is the newest member of the 3dtotal team. Originally from Canada, she graduated with a degree in journalism before immigrating to the UK, where she’s lived happily (to the confusion of many locals) since 2015. Fuelled by a lifelong love of history and all things fantasy, you’ll find her working on her own novel or exploring castle ruins in her spare time.

Nicole Jones, Marketing Manager

Nicole started working with 3dtotal at the start of lockdown 2021, giving her ample opportunity to showcase her management skills, with her three children schooling alongside her at home. Having only ever worked for a behemoth corporation, Nicole loves the dynamism and creativity of the 3dtotal team. One day, she might have them all doing yoga in the office.

Marisa Lewis, Editor

Marisa graduated from university with an MA in creative digital media with a focus on illustration, and loves to create, look at, and write about art. She has been a full-time member of 3dtotal’s editorial team since 2014, and has now worked on a wide range of publications related to 2D, 3D, and traditional art. She likes books, video games, TV, and music by what Simon calls “gaunt old rock stars.”

Philippa Barker, Editor

An avid reader and audiobook enthusiast, Philippa joined 3dtotal in 2019 having previously worked as a content writer, bookseller, editor, and proofreader. She has a Masters in Creative Writing and writes short fiction and prose-poetry. She enjoys being part of such a creative team and loves learning how to stitch, print, paint, bake, and craft new things.

Sam Draper, Editor

Sam joined 3dtotal in 2021 as Editorial Assistant after completing a Masters in Creative Writing and escaping a career in IT. In his spare time he reads too much, doesn't write enough, spends too much on vinyl and co-hosts a science fiction film podcast.

Matthew Lewis, Designer

Matt first began his affiliation with 3dtotal towards the end of 2005 when he joined the company as a part-time designer while studying at the local art college. After a stint in Cardiff, Wales, where he completed his degree in Graphic Communication, he returned to Worcester – and the 3dtotal team – to take a full-time position on the design team.

Fiona Tarbet, Designer

Fiona has been an Editorial designer ever since she realized she couldn't draw. She has worked with national news papers, International gossip magazines and clients big and small designing all things print. A comic book connoisseur and life long indoor kid, she was delighted to join the 3dtotal team in 2019 and realize her dream of being buried alive under a giant pile of books she has designed herself.

Becky Grove, Advertising Manager

Becky started working at Total Towers in 2017 with more than fifteen years of advertising experience under her belt. Originally from the beautiful county of Cornwall, she loves beaches, pasties and – of course – cider. Becky has always had a passion for art and drawing having studied Communications and Art at university, although she rarely finds the time for it nowadays with two young daughters keeping her busy.

Meghann Heighton, Marketing Assistant

With a passion for all things creative, Meghann joined 3dtotal in September 2021 just after graduating from University with a BA in Marketing, Advertising, and Public Relations. In her spare time, Meghann loves diving into the latest Marvel film, devouring global TV shows, and learning new languages, which are being tested everyday in her communications with the global 3dtotal customer base.

Ogechukwu (AKA Neddy), Artist Interviewer

Neddy is a Nigerian illustrator, concept artist and YouTuber with a deep love for art books. In January 2022, she joined the 3dtotal team as a freelancer, interviewing artists and creating videos to be shared across their social media platforms. When she's not drawing, she is most likely working on YouTube content that can help artists like herself, or tucked away in a corner admiring art from the amazing artists she looks up to. Ogechukwu is a big dreamer and hopes to one day be a part of something big, whatever that might be.

Adam Smith, Publishing Coordinator

As well as being 3dtotal’s Publishing Coordinator and customer service point of contact, Adam’s passion lies with the written word. He has written horror and sci-fi novels and short stories, and regularly writes book, film, and TV reviews on his blog.

Verity Lewis, Customer Support

Verity has been helping out at 3dtotal since 2017 and officially started her Customer Support role in 2021. In her spare time she enjoys writing and gets very invested in watching other people play video games.
