What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead visual direction for brands—building clean, high-impact identity systems and UI-focused digital design—where I can collaborate remotely, scale design systems, and ship consistently on tight deadlines.

I’m a self-taught senior graphic designer with 5+ years of experience building clean, modern brand identities and digital design systems. I specialize in minimal, high-impact visuals that communicate clearly and scale across platforms, and I’ve delivered 500+ design projects for founders, startups, and digital brands locally and internationally.

Since 2020, I’ve worked as a Senior Graphic Designer for Gen Z Founder, where I’ve led visual direction and maintained consistency across digital and event touchpoints. I build brand identity systems and social launch assets, designing with branding, typography, and digital design systems as my core focus.

From 2024 to 2025, I designed for international clients as a Graphic Designer at Aspect Ratio (India) and as a Graphic Designer for Andrew Kibe. I delivered branding and digital design solutions, including UI-focused web design and bold, high-impact visuals for events and digital platforms.

Alongside client work, I’m the Founder & Creative Director of MiGraphics, continuously upgrading my process through advanced branding and identity design (self-directed). I enjoy remote collaboration, managing multiple projects from concept to delivery, and meeting tight deadlines with a clean, scalable design system approach.
