My Story

A South African national, born in Sofia Bulgaria, living and working in Mumbai India.
Constantly challenging my boundaries and pushing the limits of my creativity.

I have a Diploma in Multimedia Design and Production, and more than 15 years’ working experience in design studios and publishing houses in South Africa, Zanzibar and Mumbai.

Throughout my career, I have always tried to ensure that the passion and enthusiasm for my work has shone through. Despite being able to work well as an independentely, I have found that it is through a team that I have achieved my greatest potential.

I have learnt that having a platform to question and develop ideas harnesses greater creativity - although realising creative inspiration doesn’t come without its obstacles! Time management and working to tight deadlines are important in any industry, but the foundations and biggest challenges of design lie in communication. In all my work, I have relished these challenges and used them to fuel my ambition and maintain my own high standards.
