I am a seasoned graphic designer with over 25 years of experience in print and digital media.
Throughout my career, I have collaborated with top companies as Rompetrol, KazMunayGaz, Vânători Neamț Natural Park, Autoitalia and leading publications such as Harper’s Bazaar, Cosmopolitan,
and National Geographic, crafting visually compelling designs that align with editorial and brand objectives.
My expertise spans editorial layout, marketing materials, and digital content creation. Currently working as a freelancer,
I am seeking new creative opportunities where I can apply my design expertise, technical skills,
and artistic vision to deliver impactful visual solutions.
• Freelance Graphic Designer. I create designs for both print and digital media, including print ads, banners for print and
online use, as well as animated HTML5 banners. I also produce promotional videos using After Effects and Premiere, handling
everything from filming and editing to animation and rendering, optimized for various social media platforms such as Facebook,
YouTube, and TikTok. Additionally, I provide training for those looking to learn graphic design.
