What I'm looking for

Looking for a role that combines creativity and strategy, with opportunities for growth and development in the design and marketing industries.

As a creative and strategic thinker, I bridge the gap between design aesthetics and marketing strategies. With a strong understanding of design principles and social media platforms, I create compelling content and drive brand awareness. My experience in interior design, architecture, and social media management enables me to deliver impactful results in both creative and technical realms.

Throughout my career, I have worked with various clients, from national tiles to construction companies, and have developed a unique blend of skills. I am well-equipped to create original and relevant options for clients, staying under budget and meeting individual requirements. My passion for design and marketing drives me to strive for excellence in every project I undertake.

With a strong educational background in interior architecture and design, I am confident in my ability to bring innovative ideas to the table. My proficiency in various digital skills, including computer-aided design and video editing, enables me to effectively communicate my vision and bring projects to life.
