I’m a Senior Brand Designer specialising in rebranding and visual identity systems across physical and digital touchpoints — from packaging and print to digital assets and brand guidelines. With 9+ years of experience in hospitality, retail, real estate, and lifestyle brands, I help businesses translate brand strategy into clear, elegant, and production-ready design solutions. I work hands-on with visual identities, brand assets, and presentation materials, balancing aesthetics with real-world constraints. Based in Bali, I collaborate remotely with international teams and clients, leading end-to-end rebranding projects — from concept and creative direction to final delivery and iteration. I’m particularly experienced in premium and lifestyle branding, where atmosphere, detail, and consistency across touchpoints are essential.
