About

Creative and adaptable graphic designer with hands-on experience in both social media content and general design projects. Skilled in using AI tools, Adobe Illustrator, and Photoshop to create everything from branding assets to vector illustrations and marketing visuals. Currently gaining practical experience through a social media design internship, where I design Instagram covers, branded graphics, and collaborate closely with marketing teams. I also have a background as a chef, which taught me time management, teamwork, and visual presentation — all of which I bring into my design process. Open to opportunities in digital design, branding, social media content, and creative collaboration. Always learning, always creating.
