What I'm looking for

I seek roles creating high-quality print and digital layouts, working on multilingual publications with a collaborative team, opportunities to refine production workflows and expand localization and ebook design skills.

I am a DTP specialist and graphic designer with over 5 years of experience designing and formatting documents to international publishing standards. I focus on print and digital materials, ensuring layouts are clear, engaging, and production-ready.

My background includes a Bachelor's in History and Civilization, ICDL certification, a Graphic Diploma, and specialized DTP training. I have practical experience with Adobe Creative Suite, InDesign, QuarkXPress, CorelDRAW, FrameMaker, Madcap Flare, and MS Office for layout and localization work.

I have worked with publishing companies and as a freelancer on multilingual projects (RTL and LTR), optimizing images, managing typography, and preparing files for print (bleed, margins, CMYK). I deliver attention to detail, consistent style, and creative problem-solving to meet client requirements.
