What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters creativity and collaboration, allowing me to innovate and grow.

I am an ambitious creative media designer with nearly five years of experience in multimedia design and animation. My journey has allowed me to work on diverse projects, from creating engaging explanatory videos to developing gamified digital learning content. I thrive on collaboration, working closely with artists and designers to bring innovative ideas to life.

Currently, I serve as a Senior Designer where I analyze storylines and create mood boards and color scripts. My role also involves curating AI-generated images and generating comic strips using Photoshop. My previous experience as a Senior Multimedia Learning Designer at Davies Group honed my skills in crafting compelling digital learning experiences that resonate with audiences.

With a Master's in Animation and Design from Supinfocom Rubika, France, I am passionate about pushing creative boundaries. I am eager to connect with new people and continue learning in this ever-evolving field.
