INTERESTS.
As a graphic designer and DJ, I combine creativity in both my work and spare time. Music is a common thread in my life, and I like to play at various parties during the weekends. In addition to my work, I find relaxation in films and series, gaming and fitness. To develop myself, I regularly take professional courses and training and stay informed of the latest trends. Traveling is another great passion, especially to sunny destinations where I can dive and discover new cultures. Pizza is my favorite dish. I like to spend my free time on outings and fun moments with my family, friends and relatives. A fun and dynamic life is an absolute must for me.

AMBITIONS.
I strive to continuously develop myself and further expand my expertise. In the near future, I will focus on exploring into a number of important fields that will further strengthen my work as a graphic and web designer.
For example, I want to improve my skills in videography and video editing so that I can present more powerful visual stories. Photography is also high on my list, because strong images form an essential basis for design and storytelling. I also want to improve myself in animation, with which I can create dynamic and striking content.
Technically, I want to further expand my knowledge of HTML, CSS and JavaScript, so that I can have more control and flexibility in web development. I also want to gain deeper insights into SEO and marketing strategies, with an extra focus on the customer journey. By understanding these better, I can provide effective customer-oriented solutions.
My goal is to not only learn these skills, but also integrate them seamlessly into my work. This way I continue to challenge myself and add even more value to the projects I work on.
