My journey in graphic design has equipped me with the ability to produce successful designs using professional software such as Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. I take pride in my ability to manage projects effectively, meet deadlines, and tackle challenges with a positive attitude.

Throughout my freelance career, I have developed a strong portfolio of work that includes advertising posters and business CAD artwork.

I thrive in both team environments and independent settings, always eager to learn from others and contribute to achieving company goals.
