Hello! 

A couple of words about my practice and background to set up the context. 


I studied graphic design and illustration in the University of Hertfordshire, UK and started off as a freelance illustrator quickly moving on to teaching graphic design and illustration at a degree level. I’ve recently been mostly involved with illustration art direction projects. 

Visual communication through word and image is my greatest passion – it’s  the area I feel most competent in, but also know there’s so much to discover and there’s always room for development and growth. I love exploring how images build narratives and how narratives can have an effect on each and everyone’s lives and perception of the world. I find it most rewarding working for socially meaningful projects.

As an art director I push and inspire my team to get the best of what they know and can do, as well as what they never imagened they knew and could do I stand for clear and transparent communication, continuous personal growth and building on individual strenghts. 

As a freelance illustrator I take up commissions that require a deep dive into the problem, allow flexible time-frame and give freedom to experiement with solutions.
