WHO AM I?
Gaining experience in various roles such as
Graphic Designer, Content Specialist and Art Director...  

Overtime I have developed as an artist, and started to enjoy art therapy as a hobby.

WHERE HAVE I BEEN?
From social content, graphic design and creative campaigns I have worked across varied industries and have learned a lot of valuable information.
But one thing that I love bringing ideas to life and seeing them evolve
from an idea on a piece of paper to a full-blown creative asset.
Here is what I've got up to...
