Available to hire
A versatile designer with multi-discipline experience across exhibition, large format printing, public space design, rapid prototyping, and product design.
Adept at understanding clients, I can work independently or collaboratively to deliver beyond expected standards.
With a history of leading design projects from concept to delivery, my approach balances technical skills with creativity to elevate ideas and maintain client satisfaction.
My toolkit includes AutoCAD, Blender, 3DS Max, Adobe Creative Suite, and more, allowing me to work fluently on both Mac and PC platforms.
Beyond design, I bring humor, integrity and a refusal to accept boring solutions to every challenge I face.
