About

Driven by creativity and a strong entrepreneurial spirit, I am a versatile digital designer and creative professional with a Bachelor’s degree in Computing and IT (2:1). My journey spans fashion, luxury retail, hospitality, and event management—shaped by my e-commerce fashion brand, creative direction in digital media, sales and retail at high-profile venues like The O2 and Chelsea FC and luxury cutomer service working as a premium hospitality associate in hotels such as Raffles at The OWO and The Peninsula. From merchandising for global artists to designing fine jewellery using CAD tools like ZBrush and Rhino 3D, I’ve gained end-to-end experience in a multitude of industries and roles, making me multi-skilled and a highly resourceful individual. I thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments where resilience, communication, and innovation are key. Passionate about crafting meaningful experiences through design and service, I am eager to bring my diverse skill set, relentless work ethic, and creative energy to a role where I can grow, contribute, and make a lasting impact.
