My designer journey began at 14 with the spark created by Adobe Photoshop, a spark that led me through design studies and eventually into a transformative seven-year chapter in gastronomy. My time at the Mirror Bar Carlton, part of the Radisson Blu network, was more than just a job; it was a masterclass in corporate discipline, international service standards, and the \"service-oriented\" mindset I carry today.\nI eventually bridged the worlds of gastronomy and graphic design, by becoming the bar's visual identity lead, culminating in the \"Essence of Design\" menu for what became one of the top bars in the world. Today, as a freelancer, I blend that corporate-honed precision with my love for visual storytelling to create design with a true story and soul.
