technical skills

As a reluctant graphic designer, I fled from a traditional path and explored my creativity, trough trying my hands on various techniques and software. Software is more than just a tool, and I try to dig deep into it. Today, I knack for critical thinking, empathy and creativity to create viable and impactful solutions using these technologies.

I spent 3 years learning Art and Graphic Design, got my Bachelor degree in Communication and Applied Art and started working independently. I think one should never stop learning and go through a process of acquiring knowledge.
