Hello, I’m ma® 🐱 👚 👖 I'm a communication designer and illustrator drawn to all things visual. Illustration sits at the 🩶 of my practice, in all its forms, shapes and scales. I see it as more than an image: a way of thinking that can shape an identity, tell a story, and live across a page, a space or a screen. I’m drawn to unexpected connections between research, culture and everyday life, turning them into visual worlds that feel thoughtful, playful and a little surprising.…Hello, I’m ma® 🐱 👚 👖 I'm a communication designer and illustrator drawn to all things visual.
