Hi! I'm currently a student at Loughborough University, where I immerse myself in the world of Graphic Design. Using creative skills learnt in the course and freelancing, I like to dive into diverse projects and find solutions to design problems.

In addition to my design work, I have experience in manging social content for podcasts and various social medias. I particularly thrive in collaboration with fellow designers and can bring creative and strategic thinking to my work.
