A creative graduate ready to enter a world of opportunities! I would describe myself as confident, determined, and open minded. I am always seeking a challenge and like to push myself to go above, and beyond what is expected of me. As a British - Asian woman, I will thrive in a work environment that is diverse and adapts to trends as well as having strong links to culture. I enjoy creating and participating in projects that have the ability to change the opinions of others and push boundaries beyond stereotypes and societal norms. I am extremely passionate about culture and religion, which is what I believe sets me apart. My attention to detail, co-ordination and my passion for design is shown through my projects created both during my studies and externally whilst freelancing.
I am eager to further my knowledge and future as a creative by exploring the world of branding and digital design and finding my feet within a field I am passionate about.
