What I'm looking for
Hi, I’m Diana, a self-taught graphic designer based in Surabaya, Indonesia, with client experience since 2023 in social media, print, and presentation design. I work in Canva, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Figma.
I design with the brief and the audience in mind, and I’m open to feedback and revisions. I’ve worked with an international client in English, delivering LinkedIn materials and whitepapers with 5-star feedback.
Some of the work I’ve done so far:
Led social media, sponsor, and large-format print design for a 1,500-participant charity run, with Instagram reach of 650k+ viewers
Grew that event’s Instagram followers by 15.1%, with all materials following national brand guidelines
Designed social media, print, and proposal materials for a fundraising project, as part of a two-person design team
Outside of design, I’m interested in Korean language and culture.
Languages: Indonesian (native), English (TOEFL Predictive 597)
