I am an illustrator and visual communicator focused on narrative-driven design and editorial illustration, creating work that blends storytelling with emotional engagement across print and digital media.
My practice crosses editorial briefs, book and zine design, and exhibition projects, with experience delivering commissioned illustrations for festivals, magazines, and libraries. I recently completed a BA in Illustration at the University of Edinburgh and am pursuing an MA in Visual Communication at the Royal College of Art to deepen my explorations in graphic storytelling and multimedia experimentation.

A picture book reimagines Newton’s apple story to explore “gravity” through
wonder and creativity. When an apple falls, a chef, an architect, and even a small bear
each see it differently—discovering their own sparks of imagination. At last, Newton
explains gravity, revealing why the apple falls back to Earth. The apple becomes a
symbol of curiosity and new ideas. With soft red-green tones and gentle textures, this
light-hearted story invites children to stay curious, dream boldly, and find their own
“apple” of inspiration in everyday life.
