ABOUT ME
I am a Senior Graphic Designer with more than 20 years of hands-on experience in the creative and printing industry.
My expertise spans across a wide spectrum of design solutions—from conceptualizing layouts to delivering print-ready artwork with precision and quality.
I work extensively with Adobe InDesign, Illustrator,
Photoshop, and CorelDRAW, creating impactful designs such as magazines, packaging, menus, business cards, brochures, leaflets, corporate branding items, and publication layouts. I also specialize in annual reports, page layout design, and structured editorial content.
In addition to my design background, I possess practical technical experience operating Konica Minolta printing systems, which allows me to manage the complete design-to-production process effectively. This unique
combination of creative and technical knowledge helps me deliver consistent, accurate, and visually compelling results.
I am passionate about transforming ideas into meaningful visual communication. I thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy collaborating with teams, and am committed to delivering high-quality work that meets both creative and commercial objectives.
If you’re looking for a designer who understands both creativity and print production, I would love to connect.
