I’m a senior graphic designer with over 10 years of experience across agency and in-house environments, translating strategy into clear, characterful visual systems—from key art to packaging and retail environments. I have a strong eye for typography, illustration, and trend-led design, and I’m drawn to projects where structure meets play, building brands with intention, clarity, and personality. I’m seeking opportunities in branding-led studios to contribute to brand thinking, system-building, and creative direction.
