360°Art and Creative Direction.

Specialized in visual communication, editorial and graphic design, and long-term content strategy for fashion & lifestyle brands — crafting a signature editorial style across print, digital, and branding platforms.

Editorial design is the art of clarity and emotion — bold statements, generous white space, and a deep love for typography that turns content into experience.

360° Art Direction / Design

Editorial design is my craft, but collaboration fuels the magic — every networked partner in the process, whether on site or remote, adds depth and clarity to the stories we create together.

Every shoot is a dialogue: I steer the vision while working hand-in-hand with a team of on-set specialists, turning concepts into seamless, brand-consistent visuals.

A strong team player and bridge between agency and client, I blend storytelling with strategy to turn content and design into experiences that resonate and click.

I’m interested in new challenges and the opportunity to grow every day. Preferably around smart and crazy individuals in media & communications ­- 
with high aspirations, little attitude and lots of humour.

ABOUT

Visual art is my passion—whether shaping the mood of a fashion campaign, curating a magazine spread, or translating a brand’s DNA into digital design. Specialized in visual communication and content creation for lifestyle brands, I’m known for my signature editorial style across print and digital platforms.

With a degree in Journalism and Design Communication Arts from UCLA, I combine storytelling with refined design aesthetics. Moving from writing to design felt natural, and after a stage in advertising, I found my way into publishing, where I truly fell in love with the craft—driven by my passion for words and sophisticated design. Early work in weekly magazines taught me fast-paced storytelling and the skill to deliver under tight deadlines. Later, in glossy publications, I discovered the beauty of detail and the art of composition—lessons that continue to define my work across media.

Today, I provide branding solutions for executives, advise management teams, inspire entrepreneurs, and guide creatives to ensure design, content, and editorial concepts resonate with the right audience. I develop holistic design and content strategies that captivate and engage through the art of storytelling.

Along the way, I’m constantly inspired. Life is in flux, always moving. In my curated moodboard, I collect impressions and inspirations, so they don’t slip away unnoticed or unused.

As an all-in-one creative, I handle the whole shebang — from research and planning to custom design and content creation—providing a straightforward approach and clear communication.
