As a Freelance Junior Graphic Designer, I design posters, visual identity materials, editorial projects, and layouts for cultural exhibitions and digital media. I manage the design process from concept through print and digital export using Adobe Creative Cloud and Canva.

At the ESSERE:UMANO Exhibition, I monitored the exhibition room, conducted guided tours, and designed graphic materials including room sheets and merchandise. I’ve also supported museum mediation at the Cervantes Institute in Palermo and co-curated the FAITH Exhibition.
