About Me
I have been working with design
for the past 8 years and I still love every minute of it.
At first I wanted to work in the fashion industry, I got a BA in Fashion, but one
thing led to
another and I started working as a surface designer. My eager and passion for
learning drove me
to move abroad to study Interactive media design. I’ve become obsessed with learning
new
softwares and producing visual content! I also love history and it’s easy to see in
my work a
touch of vintage styles. Bragging about myself, but being totally honest: I’m highly
proactive,
an eager learner and I give 100% of myself at each project in my life. If you are
looking for a
person like this, congratulations, you have found it! :)
