Hardworking and passionate Creative Designer with more than 7 years of experience working in the UK, and over 10 years abroad. I am an expert in Print and Digital Design, Illustration, Animation, and Video Editing, with the ability to face new challenges positively. I am learning fast and executing faster, remaining good-humored and calm under pressure.


From 2015 to 2022 I worked as a Creative Designer for a B2C company, focusing on personalized gifting. I was responsible for developing new photo products such as photo books, wall décor, blankets, bags, etc. for the whole process starting from concept (Design in Photoshop/Illustrator) to the final stage (coding in JavaScript, uploading into the servers). I have passed through the different phases like brainstorming, designing, team leading, and proofing. Coordination between the various marketing departments, connecting the sales with customer care to maximize the impact of the products, and designing the advertisement campaign for the launch of the products across all the multimedia channels.


My latest experience is a Multimedia Designer role at Lockton, the Independent Insurance Broker. My daily responsibilities include the creation of Interactive Digital brochures, video editing, animation, printable and digital invitations, and flyer design. Following the guidelines, I am working on different projects using Adobe CS, namely InDesign, After Effects, Premiere Pro, Photoshop and Illustrator.
