I am a bilingual Senior Graphic Designer with over 25 years of experience, driven by a lifelong passion for creativity, storytelling, and thoughtful design. Throughout my career, I have enjoyed bringing ideas to life through visual communication while staying inspired by evolving trends and timeless aesthetics. I am also an award-winning photographer whose work has been published in magazines.
In March 2022, my life took an unexpected turn when I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. What began as one of the most difficult chapters of my life also became one of the most transformative. Amid the uncertainty, fear, and grief, writing became my refuge. As a creative soul, I found myself pouring my emotions into poetry, never imagining that those deeply personal words would become my first self-published book, Solstice: : A collection of poems, created through introspection, and a reflection of a healing journey through cancer and transformation.
That experience reignited my passion for storytelling in a new way. Today, alongside my work as a designer, I am writing my first novel—a story that explores resilience, identity, and the enduring connections that transcend time. Through both my visual art and my writing, I hope to create work that inspires, comforts, and reminds others of the strength that can emerge from life’s most challenging moments.
It is by going within in contemplation with a curious mind that we finally find ourselves through the chaos of life.
