I am a Graphic Designer and professional Photo Editor with advanced expertise in Adobe Photoshop, I have a strong technical foundation in high-quality image editing, compositing, and color refinement, along with a deep understanding of visual accuracy and creative intent. Photoshop is my primary tool and an integral part of my daily workflow. I regularly work with advanced masking, compositing, non-destructive editing techniques, adjustment layers, blend modes, and precise retouching to produce polished, professional imagery. My background in photography further strengthens my editing work, as I understand lighting, composition, depth, and color at the capture stage which allows me to edit with both technical precision and creative instinct. In addition to advanced Photoshop skills, I have strong proficiency in Adobe InDesign for layout and print production, and experience in Illustrator for vector graphics and supporting design elements. My broader design background has trained me to pay close attention to detail, visual consistency, and file integrity across formats and platforms.
