I have over a decade of experience as a Brand and Motion Graphics Designer. I am passionate about assisting companies in finding their unique visual identity through design, and I have been fortunate enough to work with a variety of clients, ranging from small startups to well-established brands.

Through my freelance and corporate work, I have helped strategize branding initiatives, including logo creation, typography, iconography, layout design for print, UI designs, interactive prototypes, presentations, and website creations. In addition, I have used motion graphics and animation to enhance branding elements and improve customer engagement.

I enjoy expressing myself through various forms of art and exploring nature through outdoor activities such as running, rock climbing, and backpacking. As a UI/UX Designer, Multimedia Specialist, and Brand and Motion Design professional, I'm always open to new opportunities for growth and collaboration.
