As the sole designer at a corporate communications agency, I have had the unique opportunity to independently manage projects—overseeing timelines, managing client expectations, and serving as the primary point of contact early in my career. With meticulous attention to detail, I approach challenges both strategically and reactively, ensuring high-quality results even under tight deadlines. My core responsibilities include brand development, campaign execution, and the creation of social media content.
