Multidisciplinary designer with international roots and work experience, specialising in brand identity, visual systems, and motion design.
               I approach to projects with conceptual ideas and strategic thinking, while taking care of each project with contemporary aesthetics and attention to details.
               I bring hands-on expertise from working with global luxury houses, tech ventures, innovation-led scale-ups, and international legacy brands from Accenture Song (CH), Bold Scandinavia (SE), EY Doberman (SE), and Hamilton Watches (CH). I've worked with clients from diversified industries and sectors such Swatch Group, Scandinavian Airlines, UBS Global, Accenture Industry X, Zimpler Payments, Bambuser, among others.
