My journey into graphic design began in 2020 while studying in Humber College's Design Foundation program. During my final semester, I enrolled in an introductory Graphic Design course that challenged me to explore visual communication through creative projects and design assignments.
As I developed concepts, experimented with typography, and worked with digital tools, I discovered a passion for design that I had never fully recognized before. What started as a classroom assignment quickly became a creative outlet that allowed me to combine problem-solving, storytelling, and visual expression.
The projects I created during that year helped me realize that graphic design was more than just making things look appealing— it was about communicating ideas, building connections, and creating meaningful experiences. That discovery inspired me to continue my education in Graphic Design and develop the skills that shape my work today.
My creativity is influenced by a variety of interests that continue to inspire my work professionally.
I enjoy creating digital artwork and explore different visual styles through illustration, colour, and composition. Digital art allows me to experiment creatively while strengthening my design fundamentals.

Through my YouTube channel, I have created thumbnails, promotional graphics, and branding assets that helped me develop practical design skills while understanding audience engagement and digital branding.
Travelling to the Netherlands in 2023 introduced me to new cultures, architecture, and design perspectives. Exploring different environments helps broaden my creative thinking and inspires fresh ideas.
