As a third-year Comic & Concept Art student, I am passionate about visual storytelling and sharing narratives with the world. After a bold shift from the finance industry, where I developed strong problem-solving, negotiation, and resilience skills, I transitioned into graphic design. This move gave me valuable technical skills and the experience of working in a fast-paced, creative environment. Now, I am excited to begin my career in concept art/Visual development. From ideation to final render, visualizing ideas from scratch is where I fully unlock my potential as a creator. I am seeking an entry-level role where I can collaborate with a team and continue to grow professionally.
