About me

To whom it may concern,

I am a truly passionate Art director and Graphic designer with a great flow of creative

ideas. Since the early years I felt an urge to explore and learn the basics of image editing

computer software. Starting as a self-taught fashion illustrator in Prague I developed my

own unique style and got scouted by "Top Fashion" magazine team (one of the most

renowned magazines across Czech & Slovak republic). I landed a position of men's

fashion editor & graphic designer. Except creating a visual concept & design for every

issue, I was working on fashion features and articles. My responsibilities also included

content creation & editing, occasionally styling & organizing fashion shoots, attending

the events. As my experience grew I became a Head of Graphic design and managed

the team of four people, obtaining a proven ability to work to stringent deadlines in a fast

paced environment. I've also continued working on other publications across the media

house, which covered Lifestyle, Design and Architecture spheres.

In year 2013 I made a move to London to pursue new opportunities and polish my graphic

design skills trough a course in Central Saint Martins. During that time I was combining

freelance work and internship for Toni & Guy, followed by a short-term curatorial

experience at Camden image gallery. After finishing the course and gathering significant

amount of inspiration I've made the first step towards an independent career by launching

my own biannual publication. Sixth Finger magazine became a tool trough which I could

share the admired aesthetics and showcase my and other creative people's work. With

a small team of contributors I completed the first issue, which gained a lot of positive

remarks and brought a significant amount of audience.

Issue two was a great success expanding our contributors' number to 30 people from all

around the world and making it easier to collaborate with big names in art and fashion

industry. I was successfully expanding awareness by various social media channels

(Facebook & Instagram) gaining over 20000 readers. I've also learnt the basics of HTMLcoding

in order to launch a webpage as well as www.

fingergraphicstudio.

This experience enabled me to develop my Art-direction and project management skills

as well as being a leader and motivating an in-house team of 4 people.

One of my latest obsessions became creation of audio-visual responsive installations

using such software as quartz composer and Ableton live, enabling me to work on sound

design projects.

Disposing with a professional home graphic studio, I generally hold a big passion for

digital trends and future digital developments. I am constantly in search of something

new, always keep learning and open myself to developing new skills. I think that is what

truly keeps me going.

I would really like to share this passion with your team in order to push the brand forward

and grow together.
