What I'm looking for

I seek senior design roles where I can lead brand identity and motion projects, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive visual strategy in a creative, growth-oriented team.

I am a creative and detail-oriented Senior Graphic & Motion Designer with extensive experience leading brand identity, packaging, print collateral, motion graphics, and digital experiences. I translate client objectives and market insights into compelling visual narratives and integrated branding systems.

My career includes roles as Senior Graphic & Motion Designer (freelance/contract), Creative Director, and Public Relations Manager, where I developed identities, packaging, websites, and motion pieces while improving workflow efficiencies through templates and asset libraries. I have produced work for clients and agencies, managed multiple projects concurrently, and prepared artboards and handover documentation for developers and production teams.

I value clean, concept-driven solutions, strong storytelling, and cross-cultural collaboration; I am proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, motion tools, and web/corporate asset management, and I seek opportunities to push visual boundaries and deliver measurable brand impact.
