My passion for design started during high school, when I doodled and traced my favorite artists’ album covers, and eventually challenged myself to recreate them in Photoshop. As I dove deeper into graphic design, I fell in love with branding and packaging. Over time, I’ve built a growing collection of brochures and packaging that inspire me creatively. I keep my creativity fueled through my interest in music, traveling, and exploring new cultures.
