Vanessa Mathias
Graphic Designer
Paris, FranceAfter an exciting career in photography, assisting fashion photographer, Jean-Paul Goude and as a digital re-toucher at Studio Harcourt, I saw in Graphic Design and Digital media the next evolutionary step in my career development.
I am keenly aware of emerging new technologies and changing trends in this area and can adapt my design sensibilities to get the best desired result. A result, that in turn, reflects my obsessive pursuit for excellence in design and the end user experience. For me, it is this, that makes the difference between the best designers.
Sporty and energetic in nature, I approach new challenges with great enthusiasm. My freelance projects have brought me a level of confidence, openness and self-reliance that has positively enriched my skills in art direction and project management.
