About me
As a self-taught designer, I’ve built my career from the ground up, starting with learning Photoshop in high school. This sparked my journey into freelancing and, eventually, led me to internships during university where I gained hands-on experience. I began as a graphic designer, transitioned to a graphic and web designer, and ultimately advanced to a role as a UI/UX designer in my final placement.
While my path may be considered unconventional, one thing is certain: I bring a strong sense of determination, a passion for growth, and an unwavering commitment to learning.
