About me

I'm a self-taught graphic designer and social media marketer with a knack for creating eye-popping, jaw-dropping designs. I firmly believe that design can talk, inspire, and even make people cry happy tears, and I'm on a mission to use my skills to sprinkle a bit of magic in the world.

Now, I'm not a fancy-schmancy, formally trained designer, but my love for design has made me dive headfirst into the deep end of creativity. I've binge-watched countless online courses, attended workshops like they're rock concerts, and gobbled up books and articles on design like they're chocolate. This obsession with learning has armed me with a rock-solid foundation in design principles and made me a wizard with various design software programs.

 

So, prepare for a rollercoaster of creativity and fun!

I'm a highly motivated and multi-skilled individual with a flair for virtual storytelling and a proven track record in graphic design, content creation, sales, and business development. Basically, I'm a jack-of-all-trades with a side of creative pizzazz.

I'm a pro at turning complex ideas into eye-catching visuals, whipping up top-notch content for all sorts of platforms, and building rock-solid relationships with clients. I possess an entrepreneurial spirit that could rival a startup on espresso shots, with a solid grasp of marketing and human resources.

 

All while being committed to hard work and keeping the work environment as fun and positive as a comedy club on a Friday night. So, let's create some magic together!
