My Story

A running joke in my family is that I could draw before I could speak. It’s safe to say I’ve been captivated by the visual world for as long as I can remember. Wherever there was paper, I was there too - drawing, imagining dragons, ancient kingdoms, and the most bizarre characters.

As I grew up, I took drawing lessons that taught me technical skills and color theory, and later graduated from an art school with a focus on graphic design. Rooted in the principles of minimalism and functional design, this period shaped the foundation of my creative journey. It was also when I began freelancing - taking my first steps into the professional world.

My college years were marked by exploration and experimentation. Through various projects, I pushed the boundaries of style and technique, working with different materials, software, and ideas. This creative growth eventually led to an internship at a Prague-based graphic design studio, where I gained hands-on experience with larger projects and team collaboration.

Even as I learned from others, I continued to build my own client base. Today, I have a solid portfolio that reflects my skills, knowledge, and above all—my passion. The road hasn’t always been smooth, but every challenge has reminded me of one thing:

I'm here to create.

Manifesto

1. always think outside the box

always experiment, always chase new ideas

here is a ball made out of painted paper that's been cooked and dried multiple times.

2. create ideas that tell stories

and tell stories the audiences relate to

3. words are yet another form of creativity

i write quite a lot. that is because i am also a graduated journalist with a passion for words and copywriting.
here is an illustration of a tree made solely out of letters.

4. minimalism is good, but there's potential in chaos

depends on the vision.

5. there's inspiration in everything

and i mean everything: from music to an empty sheet of paper to a random piece of trash you see on the street
here is an improvised collage of a brain, inspired by Pink Floyd and old sheets of paper.

6. keep on growing, keep on evolving

never stop.
