I’m Sonja, freelance illustrator and pattern designer. I have a passion also for photography and I occasionally photograph events, portrayals and business images. Nature and insect photography is especially close to my heart.
Previously I have also worked as a researcher and a study director. My 8 years of experience in the field of science made me a specialist in project management and gave me an insight of the importance of quality. Now I'm able to apply this vast experience for my work as a designer.
