About me
I'm a person who cares about others - I have a smiley face and a radiant personality. My work is described as a playful, colourful and eye-catching design style. I have passion for everything I do and I’m able to fight for achieving my goals; During the last few years, I have been able to achieve numerous personal achievements which I am proud of. 5 years ago I moved in North England and I have been admitted to study a BA Illustration Degree at the Bradford School of Art, and I have been honoured with a first-class degree at the end of my studies. This experience has tremendously enriched my personality and helped me out to have a clear vision of the position I wanted to have in the creative industry. After I have graduated, I have been offered a job placement of two weeks as Illustrator at Hallmark, a company which I always wanted to explore and feeling part of, but the opportunity that has most influenced my design background was the experience as Designer Inhouse (Freelancer) at BBC Yorkshire in Leeds (for a period of 6 months), this experience gave me the courage to put myself out of my comfort zone. Although this particular job wasn’t the right fit for my skills and abilities as a Designer - I have been able to face the challenges of the job and proudly made the difference into the team, with my creativity and charism. Two years ago with my partner we have decided to set up our own design company named From Abroad Studio, which I consider the most controversial choice I ever made, I faced a lot of ups and downs during those two years, but this hardest choice which I do not regret gave me the chance to pitch, meet and work for amazing clients (based both in the UK & Italy), I met fantastic people within the industry (ex. Marta Veludo) and pushed myself out of my comfort zone without losing my designer’s soul.
