What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and innovation, ideally in industrial design, where I can apply my design skills and collaborate with diverse teams.

I am a passionate Graphic Designer and UI/UX Designer with over 10 years of experience in creating user-focused websites, branding, and digital assets. My expertise lies in WordPress development, SEO optimization, and 3D modeling with Blender. I thrive on collaborating with clients and teams to enhance engagement, achieving up to 25% more clicks on campaigns I’ve designed.

Throughout my career, I have successfully designed branding, campaigns, and garment visuals that significantly increased brand recognition for local clients. My freelance work has allowed me to develop SEO-optimized WordPress websites, enhancing client visibility and driving traffic. I am now eager to transition into industrial design, where I can merge my creativity with practical innovation.
