What I'm looking for

I seek senior creative roles where I can lead brand strategy and UX-driven design, collaborate cross-functionally, and scale impactful visual experiences in growth-oriented teams.

I am a Brand & Creative Designer and Design Director with 5+ years leading brand identity, UX/UI, and digital product design. I build visual strategies that connect emotionally and deliver measurable commercial results.

As founder of a multi-disciplinary studio, I scaled client services across fashion, architecture, and tech, leading a small team to deliver identities, websites, and campaigns with strong client retention and repeat business.

In senior creative roles I have led luxury product launches, e-commerce experiences, and cross-functional collaboration with product and marketing teams — driving pre-launch traction, increased inquiries, and conversions.

My practice combines user research, design thinking, and practical implementation using tools like Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, WordPress, and Shopify, and I continually adopt emerging workflows such as AI-assisted design and motion/3D work.
