I am a surrealist illustrator and visual designer with a strong academic background and a disciplined, analytical approach to visual communication. My practice blends idiosyncratic aesthetics with conceptual depth, giving brands a distinctive edge in an increasingly homogenised visual landscape. I thrive in both independent and collaborative environments, bringing imaginative problem-solving, meticulous attention to detail, and a commitment to craft. I’m now seeking a full-time creative role where I can apply my illustration, design, and photo manipulation skills to dynamic, digital-first content. Website/Portfolio: _Website not available.
