I come from Tbilisi, Georgia - a land of breathtaking mountains and generous people. But it’s also a country defined by ongoing tensions and a generational fight for peace.

Throughout my early years, I stood before the Parliament for countless days, holding protest signs with my peers, advocating for our rights, freedom, and social justice. Those experiences shaped my worldview, instilling in me a deep belief in the power of speaking out and truly listening to others’ stories.

In 2013, I made my first trip to UCL in London, spending the summer studying there. That experience sparked a fire in me to move abroad, and I dedicated the next two years to making that dream a reality.

At 17, I moved to England, facing daily cultural shocks but gaining invaluable lessons in return. Those two years became pivotal for my personal growth—not only overcoming the typical challenges of teenage life but also embracing full independence and responsibility. After completing my A levels in sociology, media, and business, I pursued my bachelor's and master's degrees in Amsterdam, where I'm still building the life I envision every day.


Career

I’m on an ongoing journey of blending creativity with strategic insight to enhance digital experiences. My career has been a dynamic fusion of visual design and strategic thinking, transforming complex concepts into intuitive, user-centred solutions.

With four years of experience across agencies, in-house studios, and freelance projects, I've refined my ability to tackle intricate problems and deliver impactful results. My deep dive into behavioural research has enriched my understanding of user needs and preferences, guiding me to create designs that are both innovative and strategically aligned. This commitment to evidence-based design drives me to craft solutions that are not only effective but also visually compelling.

I come from Tbilisi, Georgia - a country of beautiful mountains and generous people. 

However, it is also a country fuelled by tension and generational thrive towards peace. 

Before moving abroad, I spent years holding up protest signs in front of the Parliament building, fighting for our rights and freedom with my beloved peers. Such an environment has shaped how I look at the world as I find the importance of voicing and hearing each other’s experiences in everything I do.

During my first trip abroad, I was shocked to notice the freedom and security carried by citizens. That’s when I promised myself to do everything in my willpower and move abroad for my professional growth 


In 2015, I made that dream come true and at the age of 17, pursued A levels in business, media and sociology. These two years turn out to be the most crucial times for my personal growth - besides the obstacle that any teenager faces, I discovered the beauty of full independence and responsibility. 

Moving



In 2017, I moved to Amsterdam where I studied Communication Science, followed by a Master’s in Persuasive Communications with a focus on research and media strategies. 

I started my career as a strategist and a marketeer intern. I could use my research skills throughout the work to fully understand the context and target audience needs before building the concepts. This was quickly followed by my deep interest in acquiring visual design skills and approaching branding and UX/UI opportunities, which have helped me to sophisticate each step of design thinking.
