Summary
I'm a 19-year-old creative and driven aspiring artist moving toward a career in graphic design. I have a strong background in fine arts and hands-on experience creating digital content for social media, branding, and marketing. I've worked on everything from Instagram graphics and infographics to product mockups, always aiming to combine strong visuals with communication, while incorporating my fine art skills. I'm studying Fine Arts and Design at the University of Alberta, where I've built skills in illustration, sculpture, and printmaking. I enjoy collaborating with others, finding creative solutions, and bringing ideas to life through art and design.
