About

A visual specialist with longtime experience in the fields of web design, art direction and video editing.

I spent over 10 years working as a Digital Designer

As a kid at school I remember putting ‘Graphic Designer’ as a job placeholder when practicing how to write a CV. Somehow, I’ve always known that my path ahead in life was paved with digital screens and visual mockups.

Starting as a Junior Interactive Designer in a small agency in London’s Notting Hill I learned a lot about web design, online advertising and especially layouts by creating and hand-coding email newsletters. Later, I outgrew email grids and became familiar with a broad range of design areas in bigger companies, designing mainly online ads, banners, and landing pages. I truly became a Digital Design All-Rounder.

Art Direction enriched my craft

It wasn’t a big jump from design to art direction. In fact, I stumbled upon it almost organically in a designer role in 2014, discovering the fun and excitement of conceptualizing communication campaigns for various products, themes and seasons. I was responsible for co-managing and co-planning those campaigns, providing creative direction for photography teams and communicating ideas to other stakeholders within the companies. That’s how I learnt responsibility and accountability.

Additionally, I could hone my soft skills and personal integrity in various complex situations.

Having a creative mindset

I love to experiment. I never rest. My attitude is to stay in motion. Change drives me forward. Playing with new ideas and exploring the endless possibilities is an enjoyable process to me. I am interested in storytelling and believe in beauty. I focus on bringing both form and content together to create exceptional concepts that convey exciting messages.

Did you know...

I used to draw and paint in the old-fashioned way on paper and canvas. I also experimented with digital matte paintings.
