MY CAREER JOURNEY

2020 - Present

Freelance Designer
Graphic Design - Motion design - Code - 3D

As a freelance designer, I’ve worked on a wide range of projects for diverse clients, applying my skills in graphic design, the Adobe Suite, and 3D programs across various industries. My background —from building a strong technical foundation at my first school to studying design principles for four years at an art academy — has given me the versatility to tackle creative challenges. Each project offers a new opportunity to push my creativity, adapt to different styles, and deliver compelling visual solutions.

2019 - 2022

HKU (University of the arts)
Graphic Design

I spent three years at an art academy, where I immersed myself in the world of graphic design. During my studies, I learned the fundamentals of composition, typography, color theory, and visual communication. Through both digital and traditional media, I honed my creative and technical skills, developing a strong eye for aesthetics. This experience not only deepened my understanding of design but also prepared me for a future in the industry, where I can bring ideas to life through visual storytelling.

2015 - 2017

Sint Lucas
Cross Media - 3D Game Art

My first school was where I built a solid foundation in the Adobe Suite and 3D programs. I gained hands-on experience with industry-standard software, learning how to create, edit, and refine digital designs. This early training helped me develop essential technical skills and set the stage for my growth as a designer.
