Hello there!
I am a freelance illustrator and graphic designer from the island nation of Maldives. I am currently based in the Bay Area, California.
With a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design from KBU International College, Malaysia in 2011, followed by an MFA in Illustration from the Academy of Art University in 2015, I bring extensive knowledge and experience to my work.
Although my portfolio has predominantly served clients in the Maldives, I am hoping to pursue more freelance opportunities in illustration and graphic design internationally, aspiring to broaden my clientele.
Majority of my illustration and graphic design work is digital; characterized by vibrant and colorful expressions! I thrive on continuous learning, eagerly embracing new techniques and opportunities for experimentation, ensuring that my style remains dynamic and ever-evolving. If an opportunity presents itself, I love working with traditional materials as well.
I am thriller to share that I have recently had the opportunity to do some photoshoots for some amazing people I love. Now, I am eager to expand and take on more projects. Do check out my separate Photography (coming soon) section here on my portfolio!
For any business enquiries, commissions, collaborations or anything else, contact me here.
Outside of my professional endeavors, I find joy in creative hobbies, especially hands-on activities like jigsaw puzzles, macramé, and my latest pursuit, sewing! I find immense satisfaction in bringing ideas in my head to life!
