Hello! I’m Gabrielle (Gabbie for short) and I’m going into my final year of Illustrations studying at the University of the West of England. I’ve worked on an array of projects both professionally and academically, ranging from self-development to social issues/impacts. I am passionate, transparent and resilient with an outside the box spark!

Work Experience:
-Branding: I’ve collaborated closely with multiple startups helping/supporting them in creating a bespoke brand that best represents who they are, whether that is starting from scratch to rebranding an already existing company. Taking on the responsibility of creating brand guidelines that encompasses personalised colour palettes and theory, to fonts, compositions and graphic designs.
Lumaki’s brand guidelines:

Skills
-Adaptable: Due to my positive character, I tend to welcome change openly and am flexible to any situation. I will collaborate through any challenge!
-Problem-solving: My adaptable nature goes hand-in-hand with my creative thinking, I am able to bring a fresh mind to the table and bring ideas/solutions to help achieve a consensus goal.
-Listening: I practice active listening to enable myself to listen to client needs and feedbacks, so I may implement them and add value to project works.
-Communication: Transparency and clarity are both significant values that builds trust between collaborators/partners and is something I believe in greatly. I practice good communication skills between other parties and I, ensuring everyone’s voices are heard and frequently updating them on progress and important stages.
-Passionate Learner: I am always striving to be a better person than I was yesterday and I see failure as being a key fundament in growth. There may be areas that I may not be so knowledgeable about, however I am resilient and keen to understand and sharpen my knowledge.
