What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a creative role where I can grow as a designer, contribute to meaningful projects, and collaborate with thoughtful teams. I value purpose-driven environments that blend design, content, and storytelling - with flexibility, clear communication, and room for creative exploration.

I'm a multidisciplinary designer with a passion for building thoughtful, authentic brand experiences. With experience spanning visual identity, packaging design, digital content, and product development, I bring a holistic approach to design — from concept to execution.

Over the years, I’ve led creative projects across various mediums, designing logos, crafting unique packaging, and developing product lines that blend aesthetics with storytelling. My work includes everything from handcrafted label design and print-ready files to strategic social media content creation, particularly on Instagram, where I’ve built visual narratives that connect meaningfully with audiences.

Curious by nature and detail-oriented by practice, I thrive in environments that value innovation, collaboration, and creative exploration. I'm currently seeking opportunities where I can contribute to dynamic teams, continue to grow as a designer, and help shape impactful brand identities.
