What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters creativity and collaboration, allowing me to leverage my design skills while contributing to impactful projects.

I am a proactive, results-driven Graphic Designer with over 11 years of experience in the industry. My journey has taken me through various roles where I've honed my skills in brand identity, promotional materials, and social media content. I pride myself on not only delivering visually appealing designs but also understanding the complexities of running a business. This insight allows me to address the needs and challenges of each project effectively.

Throughout my career, I have worked with several companies and clients, developing brand design elements, animations, and 3D models. My experience includes leading design projects for notable organizations like Qualcomm Inc. and Hamilton HIVE, where I created competitive brand assets and engaging social media content. I am passionate about using design as a tool for storytelling and communication, and I thrive in collaborative environments where creativity and teamwork are valued.
