Hey there and welcome to my portfolio.
Since a young age I have always loved to create things. It initially started off with pencil drawings, but eventually turned to oil painting, watercolor and digital paintings. My interest in designing only increased as I grew older.
I am very passionate about all things design. By adding creativity, you can change something normal to something extraordinary. In particular, I love to create clean and minimalistic designs that communicate a clear message.
When I’m not designing, you can find me reading or dabbling in video editing and motion graphics.
Feel free to contact me, I’d love to hear from you.
