About

I am a graphic designer with an EFZ/CFC in Design from F+F Schule für Kunst und Design Zürich and a strong foundation in design principles, typography, color theory, and layout. My curiosity drives me to seek multidisciplinary creative solutions that address the complex and evolving needs of human beings. I value collaboration, feedback, and learning from different perspectives and disciplines. I aim to deliver high-quality and impactful design work that enhances the customer experience. In my free time, I like to expand my cultural and artistic horizons by trying new cooking recipes from different regions of the world and listening to podcasts.
