About

I am a mid-level graphic designer with over ten years of creative experience, specialising in visual design, branding, and digital media. My work integrates design excellence with strategic thinking to create solutions that drive engagement and elevate brand presence.

I am proficient in Adobe Creative Suite – including Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, XD, and After Effects – as well as Figma for UI/UX design. My skills extend across print and digital platforms, allowing me to craft brand identities, marketing collateral, social media designs, and responsive web interfaces with precision and attention to detail. I have a strong understanding of typography, colour theory, grids, layout, and visual hierarchy to ensure each design communicates effectively and aligns with brand strategy.

My background in software development gives me a unique technical perspective, enhancing my ability to collaborate with developers, product teams, and stakeholders. I approach design challenges with a problem-solving mindset, combining creativity with functionality to deliver user-centred solutions. I am comfortable creating wireframes, interactive prototypes, and incorporating user feedback to refine designs and ensure an intuitive user experience.

Known for my clear communication, adaptability, and proactive approach, I excel in both independent and team settings. I manage multiple projects efficiently, meeting deadlines without compromising quality. I value collaboration, innovation, and consistency, always aiming to produce designs that are visually compelling and strategically effective.

Recently, I have developed a strong interest in creative leadership. I enjoy mentoring junior designers, sharing design best practices, and contributing to team growth. I am eager to expand into roles that allow me to lead design initiatives, refine brand systems, and drive high-impact visual storytelling that resonates with diverse audiences.
