What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster creativity and allow for professional growth in a collaborative environment.

As a graphic designer with a B.A. Hons in Graphic Design, I have cultivated a strong foundation in design principles, typography, and digital illustration. My journey began at MCAST, where I honed my skills in various design software, including Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. I am passionate about creativity and design, eager to apply my skills and grow in the industry.

Currently, I work as a Freelance Graphic Designer and as the General Manager/Graphic Designer at Tree64 Ltd. In my freelance role, I collaborate with clients on diverse design projects, creating tailored digital and print materials that enhance brand visibility. At Tree64 Ltd, I oversee daily operations, manage a team, and ensure high-quality standards while communicating effectively with clients. My experience has equipped me with the ability to handle multiple projects independently and deliver results within deadlines.
