What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow creatively and collaborate with diverse teams.

I am a passionate graphic designer with a strong focus on branding and visual storytelling. My experience includes creating social media graphics, business cards, and branding packages for local entrepreneurs and small businesses. I pride myself on delivering high-quality designs with quick turnaround times, ensuring that my clients' visions come to life.

In my freelance work, I have collaborated with beauty and lifestyle influencers to edit aesthetic reels and TikTok content, enhancing their visual storytelling through effective use of color grading and transitions. My recent role as a Social Media Content Designer allowed me to significantly boost engagement for a Boston-based lash artist, showcasing my ability to create impactful visual content that resonates with audiences.
