With extensive design and marketing experience, I am a positive, flexible and receptive professional open to new opportunities, and I have the ability to bring messages to life through visual expressions. I am a strong believer that one picture/graphic can be worth a thousand words. I have deep knowledge of Adobe Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop, as well as Sway, Figma, Canva and Google, and I continuously scout the evolving market for new tools and technologies in visualization, graphic design and marketing. My career across Europe in multinational organisations, startups, technology, innovation and branding has trained me to develop concepts through to final proof for online material and print, and to coordinate teams with web developers, printers and stand/exhibition builders to ensure top quality on time and within budget.
