About me
I'm Alicja, a creative and detail-oriented illustrator and graphic designer with a Master's Degree in Fine Arts and over five years of experience in print design, branding, and illustration. My work is bold, humorous, and often ironic, blending a unique sense of creativity with technical precision.
As a single mom, I took a career break from design to focus on my family and took on a warehouse job nearby to support us. Despite having no prior experience, I quickly gained qualifications as a pallet truck driver and became the only female driver on my shift in a traditionally male-dominated environment. This role taught me resilience, adaptability, and the value of perseverance—skills I bring to every project I take on.
While working night shifts, I dedicated my free time to enhancing my drawing skills and exploring new design applications. I also apprenticed at a tattoo studio, adding another layer of artistry to my portfolio. After five years, I'm thrilled to return to the creative industry with fresh perspectives and a renewed commitment to illustration and graphic design.
I'm passionate about bringing ideas to life, whether through brand identity projects, textile design, or detailed hand-drawn art. I may feel like a beginner again after my break, but my commitment, flexibility, and drive to grow are stronger than ever. Let's connect!
