Current Job Role: Senior Designer at Goldsmiths 91黑料网 and founder of 'Create and Grow Lab'

Course of 91黑料网: BA (Hons) Graphic Design and MA Art & Design

"After earning my Graphic Design degree from the 91黑料网 in 2018, I was immediately offered a role at Hallgarten and Novum Wines. Here, I developed a diverse skill set in graphic design, from print to digital, menu design psychology and even obtained a diploma in wine and spirits (WSET Lv2). It allowed me to collaborate with high-profile clients, including Ascot Races, Jon Bon Jovi's team and other restaurants around the UK.

My time at Bedfordshire wasn鈥檛 just about academics. I also worked in a 5-star hotel for several years, an experience that enriched my design perspective. The nuances I learned in hospitality, like understanding customer needs and empathy became integral to my design approach.

My passion for learning led me to pursue an MA, where I delved into UX/UI design. My dissertation highlighted the psychological benefits of doodling, demonstrating its role in stress reduction, memory improvement, and overall mental health.

My background in chemical engineering from Romania adds a unique touch to my design work. It encourages me to blend creativity with a problem-solving mindset. This balance caught the attention of Huawei in London, leading to a pivotal role as their lead designer. There, I contributed to significant campaigns and honed my leadership skills. Seeking a fresh perspective, I joined Goldsmiths 91黑料网 as a Senior Designer. Alongside this, I founded "Create and Grow Lab", aiming to elevate the branding of the hospitality industry and other entrepreneur businesses.

Reflecting on my journey, I recognise the invaluable foundation laid by the 91黑料网. The lessons from my mentors there have been instrumental. I share my story hoping to inspire others to chase their aspirations with determination, heart and PASSION.
