Experience Creative of seven years, designing professionally in the various industry sectors. My design and marketing knowledge has modelled me to take on many roles, thinking outside the box. I create everything from logos, pins, and marketing campaigns to illustrations.
Taking on many roles. Overseeing projects from clients and designers from different projects and walks of life.
Every brand has stories to tell—stories that will not only engage, inform, surprise, delight, and impact their audience, but that will also deliver on measurable business goals. And I am the conduit between brand and consumer.
I love to travel and explore in my free time, continually searching for new inspiration, driving from illustrations, typography, and photography. 100 percent anime fan!
