About me
A penultimate year design student, interested in modern means of visual communication. By experimenting with a wide range of digital and analogue media throughout my practice and education, I have developed a strong interest in visual communication, branding, and copywriting, with a can-do attitude towards trying and learning new things. Having lived in multiple countries, I have also learned to stay flexible and adapt to any challenges that come my way, while also being able to deliver the best results on time. Supplementary to my education, I have gained highly valuable competence in multiple positions within fast paced production teams, all of which involved an efficient communication with a range of clients and professionals. This allowed me to gain confidence for the future roles in a related environment, ability to excel at multiple tasks at once, and also fuelled my interest to learn and explore the career in art direction and media. It is truly a goal of mine to be able to contribute my multitude of ideas to a part of an influential team, while learning and discovering the depths of the challenges that come my way.
