About me
Intro
I am a passionate Freelance Senior Graphic Designer and Communication Strategist with over 15 years of experience in advertising, branding, and visual design. Throughout my career, I have worked across multiple markets — from Europe to the Middle East and Africa — helping brands build strong visual identities and impactful stories that connect with diverse audiences. I’m actively looking for a Senior Graphic Designer role in the Middle East to join a communications agency and gain solid experience alongside demanding teams, proven methods, and ambitious projects. This new career direction will strengthen my strategic vision and help me grow across the entire creative process: understanding the brief, developing concepts, leading visual direction, execution, and ensuring brand consistency. Used to working independently as well as collaborating with clients and partners, I’m rigorous, responsive, and highly detail-oriented. I can quickly contribute to branding, advertising campaigns, social media, packaging, and digital content, while staying open to feedback to continuously improve.
