Skills
Conceptual work and graphic design
Thanks to my extensive experience in art and graphic design, I am able to create a conscious and consistent corporate image for my clients. My broad perspective and passion for finding new solutions, both graphic and technological, allow me to deliver comprehensive projects.
Project management and team work
I have managed graphic design projects, working with briefs and the design thinking methodology. I have considerable experience in coordinating cultural projects as an art curator and editor-in-chief of an art and science magazine. I can effectively communicate with clients, subcontractors, and team members. The Agile philosophy is close to my heart.
Mentoring and tutoring
For a couple of years, I was a mentor in the “Link to the Future” project, implemented by the Information Society Development Foundation, co-financed by Microsoft. The aim of the project was to support young people from small towns in planning their professional careers in an all-embracing and unconventional way, with an emphasis on the development of information society and knowledge-based economy. As part of the project, I ran workshops for hundreds of people from several Polish towns. Also, while organizing individual exhibitions, I ran workshops focused on modern art.
