What I'm looking for

I am looking for a creative environment where I can grow, collaborate, and contribute to innovative design projects.

As a graphic designer and illustrator based in Krakow, I have cultivated a diverse skill set that allows me to create compelling visual narratives. My experience includes managing brand identities, developing layouts, and producing illustrations for various platforms. Currently, I work as a Middle Graphic Designer at Petshop.ru, where I oversee the Savita brand, focusing on packaging design, digital publications, and promotional materials.

In addition to my role at Petshop.ru, I teach Graphic Design and Adobe Creative Suite at Brunoyam, where I develop course content and engage with students through lessons and webinars. My freelance work has further honed my skills in creating logos, web materials, and custom illustrations, allowing me to explore my creativity and connect with clients on a personal level.
