Available to hire
I am a multidisciplinary artist and tattoo artist based in Switzerland. I bring strong experience in client communication, scheduling, customer service, sales, and studio organization, and I enjoy turning ideas into precise, customized art.
Running my own creative practice has strengthened my ability to manage projects, coordinate workflows, and handle administrative tasks with reliability and precision. I am open to part-time (20–40%) remote or back-office roles where I can apply my organizational skills and multilingual communication.
