What I'm looking for

I want to continue growing in graphic design, digital communication, and content creation.

As a freelance graphic designer, I create visual work and develop brand identities. I also work as a social media coordinator and graphic designer for a restaurant and café, creating content for social platforms and communicating with their audiences.

I'm studying Digital Content Design at Medieinstitutet, where I’m developing my ability to combine visual design, strategy, and technology for digital platforms. My studies include responsive design, motion design, UX, and data-driven design.

I earned a BA in Graphic Design from Briar Cliff University and a minor in photography. I used Adobe Creative Cloud, particularly Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign, and spent time photographing football matches and working with studio lighting.

At Coop Sverige, I was a team leader for daily e-commerce operations, trained and coached colleagues, and handled returns. I’m looking to keep growing in graphic design, digital communication, and content creation.
