Who I Am
I'm Mary, a Graphic Designer and UI/UX Designer based in Bournemouth, with over eight years of experience across brand identity, digital illustration, web design, and motion graphics. I hold an MA in Graphic Design from Arts University Bournemouth. I'm currently working at Studio Global in a multidisciplinary creative role spanning UI/UX, graphic design, and artworking.
Design has been part of my life since I was ten years old — that's when I first encountered Graphic Design and knew it was the path for me. I went on to study at art high school, taught myself Adobe Photoshop, and built my foundation through a BA in Industrial Design. After years working across different creative roles, I pursued my MA at AUB to deepen my practice and specialise further.
Since then, I've grown into a designer who is equally at home in Figma designing user interfaces as I am in Illustrator crafting brand identities or preparing print-ready files. I'm currently expanding my UX knowledge through Google's UX Design Professional Certificate, which covers research, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing.
I'm a fast learner, a collaborative team player, and someone who genuinely cares about the details. I thrive in active, creative environments where good design solves real problems.
