Graphic Designer

I create visual identities, layouts and design systems with a structured and thoughtful approach.

My work combines graphic design, illustration and hands-on experience across different fields - shaping ideas into clear, functional and visually engaging results.

About

I come from a graphic design background, with a Master's degree in visual arts and additional studies in pedagogy.

Over time, I worked across different roles - from education to hands-on creative work - which shaped the way I approach design today: structured, patient and detail-oriented.

I enjoy building clear layouts, visual systems and design concepts that are not only visually appealing, but also practical and easy to use.

I'm particularly interested in projects where design meets real-world constraints - print, packaging, branding, layout or anything that needs to work beyond the screen.
