About

I am a Senior Graphic Designer with extensive experience in apparel graphics, branding, trend development, and digital illustration. I excel at delivering high-volume retail graphics, private-label programs, and fast-turn creative solutions, leveraging Adobe Creative Cloud and AI-assisted tools for remote collaboration.

I’ve collaborated with buyers, merchandisers, and creative directors across the US and Europe on fashion, entertainment, corporate, and promotional brands, creating brand identities, packaging, surface patterns, and production-ready artwork that aligns with market trends and timelines.
