SUMMARY
Versatile Graphic Designer and Illustrator with a decade of global recognition. Started as a Microstock Illustrator in 2013, contributing to major platforms like Shutterstock and Adobe Stock. Transitioned to a successful Freelance Graphic Design and Illustration career in 2018, achieving Top-Level status on 99Designs. Proficient in Adobe Creative Cloud and Affinity, showcasing expertise in raster and vector graphics, traditional illustration, and digital animation, along with knowledge of diffusion-based generative models.
In June 2024, I started the JS/FE Pre-School 2024Q2 course at RS School, hoping to learn basic programming skills and further dedicate my life to the machine learning related IT-industry. I began training from the very basics, as my knowledge of programming is rather scrappy, in order to build a stable knowledge base and form a mindset that will allow me to be productive in programming later on.
