About me

I'm a multi-disciplinary designer working across brand, digital and print. I've worked with fintech, FMCG and SaaS companies, turning complex technical briefs into clear, on-brand assets that actually make sense.

I'm also a walker. What started as personal adventures has evolved into creating walking guides with first-hand accounts, photography and illustrations. There's something about being outdoors that helps untangle tricky design problems - my best thinking happens on dirt paths.

If you need design work that's playful, strategic and human, let's talk.
