I'm a graphic designer based in Finland.
My interests include visual identities, events, and photography.
I would describe my style as minimal and bright.
I'm currently studying for a bachelor's degree in Graphic Design at LAB Institute of Design and Fine Arts.
You may view some of my client work, academic projects, and a few personal projects in this portfolio.
I’m always open to projects, big or small. Feel free to get in touch.
