Description
While working at Atelier Ana Aragão, I was responsible for coordinating several commissioned illustration projects from the initial client request through to final delivery.

My role involved analysing client enquiries and project briefs, participating in client meetings, and preparing estimates and budgets for commissioned works. I conducted conceptual and visual research to support project development and discussed these proposals directly with the studio director.

I also produced digital mock-ups and preliminary sketches used to guide the final drawings, prepared final artwork files for delivery to clients, and managed communication throughout the project.
