Available to hire
I am a freelance print designer and illustrator with a keen eye for emerging trends and a knack for turning ideas into commercial prints. I design across fashion and home accessories, leveraging the Adobe Creative Suite and CAD tools to develop concepts from initial idea to print-ready files.
I love hand drawing, painting and creating prints and illustrations digitally, always researching new techniques to push my skills forward.
I’ve cultivated a distinctive and versatile skill set. This allows me to adapt to various styles and deliver designs that align with each brand’s vision and aesthetic.
