About me
Pursuing an academic rather than a creative path in school, I have always been intrigued with the subject of language in art; the occurring use of letters, words and symbols in artworks; how they convey a message effectively and efficiently without losing meaning, this is what I would like to convey in my own practice. I am a highly dedicated and creative designer with various experience in projects I have dealt with. A passion for fresh and original designs, but also a hands-on approach to the entire creative process means that each project is curated with the utmost attention from inception to final delivery, strong communicator with the ability to communicate ideas clearly to clients. With this I would like to further on with Otis College of Art and Design to learn more sets of skills and more knowledge based on Graphic Design but also help me grow as a person and a designer and develop on some majority of things I believe I could be better with.
