What I'm looking for
As a recent graduate with a diploma in UX Design, I bring over six years of experience in art direction and graphic design within global advertising agencies. My journey has been marked by a commitment to creativity and innovation, leading projects that not only meet client expectations but also drive significant revenue growth. Currently, I am rebranding Ignition Studio, where I am responsible for the UX/UI redesign of the website and mentoring junior designers.
Previously, I played a pivotal role at VMLY&R Commerce, where I designed campaign assets for major brands like Coca Cola and Panadol, contributing to their impressive revenue growth. My experience at Wunderman Thompson saw me conceptualizing and executing integrated campaigns for global brands, winning prestigious awards for my work. I have a passion for mentoring and sharing knowledge, having judged student works at the Crowbar Awards.
