I am a second-year Concept Art student at De Montfort University, with a strong work ethic and keen attention to detail. I enjoy creating cohesive, visually engaging designs across traditional and digital media, with a focus on storytelling, mood, and character-driven world-building. I'm especially interested in developing concepts that support narrative-rich experiences and hope to contribute to story-focused games while continuing to refine both my creative and technical skills. I'm friendly, approachable, and productive in both independent and collaborative environments.
