About the Facilitator
Jim Rogers
Jim Rogers is a Birmingham based illustrator who specialises in visual note-taking. He has over a decade of experience in the creative industry and worked with companies big and small to bring their ideas to life through visuals.
Jim found a love for drawing at an early age and at school he began using visual notes as a way to revise during his exams. Much later on he realised he could apply the same concept to help businesses engage their teams and at the same time, make sure their voices are heard.
Over the years he’s worked on a wide range of design, illustration and branding projects and learned that one of the pillars of great creative is making the complex – uncomplicated! In 2018 he decided to start ‘Boo Yeah Illustration Services’ to do just that – take complex ideas and stories and make them memorable and accessible to everyone!
