What I'm looking for

I seek a creative role where I can apply graphic design, illustration, UX/UI and motion skills, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and contribute to campaign-driven visual storytelling while continuing to grow professionally.

I am a multidisciplinary and creative designer with a background in biology and a transition to design supported by formal training and practical experience. I develop result-driven visual solutions—branding, illustrations, motion and campaign assets—and have delivered 25+ commissioned illustrations with top ratings as a freelancer.

In corporate communication I increased worker engagement by 25% through newsletters and social campaigns, contributed to event organization and video production, and collaborated on 5+ campaigns engaging external stakeholders. I work with Adobe Suite, Figma, prototyping and front-end basics to bring ideas to life.
