I’m a creative, curious illustrator with nine years of graphic design and illustration under my belt, currently drawing my way through London. I love making visuals that don’t just look good, but actually say something images with personality, intention, and a bit of heart. Over the years, I’ve dipped my brushes into all sorts of projects, from branding and editorial layouts to full-on illustration work, both in-house and freelance. I’m fluent in the Adobe Creative Suite and happiest when I’m turning thoughtful ideas into clear, engaging visuals. Illustration is where I feel most “me,” and I’m always up for exploring new concepts, teaming up on inspiring projects, and stretching myself creatively. There’s always another idea waiting to be drawn, and I’m excited to keep chasing them. Portfolio here: _Website not available. Sign in: https://www.twine.net/signup_
