About me
I'm a pixel-perfect, interdisciplinary designer with 5 years' worth of diverse experience in the creative industry. I have extensive experience with designing brand identities, along with developing illustrations and patterns for fashion houses and textile studios. I critically evaluate and reflect upon my work at each stage of the design process. Having done my Bachelors in Business Administration gives me an in-depth understanding of the relation a business strives to develop with its audience. My Masters in Communication Design from Kingston University London helps me translate this relation visually into the assets I create for the brand, thus helping to cover any gaps that might exist. Conscientious at heart, I am an artist who loves exploring and working with different mediums. Over the years, I have mastered the art of hyper realistic portraits and nature study using oils as well as colour pencils. Currently working on my illustrative skills in the digital realm, I strive to utilise my multidisciplinary skillset in each project I work on. Early in my career, I had the opportunity to work with multiple F&B brands, which gave me a lot of exposure to how the industry works and what really resonates with a brand's target audience. I have been working with an educational brand based in UK which has shown tremendous growth since I developed their new brand identity - all of this through the current Covid lockdown across the globe! I look forward to revolutionising your business in the same way with a touch of my creative input - speak to you very soon!

It was also important that the images don't distract from the actual product, so we simply extended the elements of the hamper into the setting. The mood shots were styled keeping the upcoming festive season of

    Ashford, United KingdomFull Time
    Besides tutoring young minds, rebranding and creating a whole new visual language was my first task when I started working for Tutor World UK, which is a tutoring company based in Kent. I worked on multiple publications for them, illustrating book covers and formatting the content. While identifying the best marketing strategies for them to increase reach even during lockdown, I designed their social media strategy, to ensure that all communications are instantly recognisable as Tutor World's.
