About me

Hello! Welcome to my profile! My name is Ailette Cordova. I am an Information Designer with broad experience in data visualisations, infographics, editorial design, branding, UX and UI web design, illustrating, and a bit of website development. Additionally, I am an amateur photographer who has worked on some product photography projects. I am passionate about my profession and enjoy every step of the projects I am involved in, from the creation phase to their conclusion. I’m a great team player and a self-sufficient and reliable professional. My subjects of preference are journalism, infrastructure and sustainability, but I also occasionally enjoy working on personal projects related to graphic design and art.
