PERSONAL PROFILE

I’m passionate about all things creative, including storytelling, design, fashion, music and painting. I’m eager to use my talents and skills to positively impact society and inspire others (and of course, myself). I’m always looking for opportunities to grow as a writer, designer and producer in the marketing, advertising or public relations fields.
