About me
Hi, I'm Yoland, a multidisciplinary designer. I've loved art and design in all its forms ever since high school. I enjoy bringing ideas to life visually. That led me to a Bachelor's in Graphic Communications and Management, then to several marketing roles, with freelance projects always running alongside. Along the way I've created content, built brands, run marketing and kept drawing whenever I could.
Now I'm taking that curiosity further with an MA in Web Development and Content Management, and I'm looking for roles where design, content and code come together.
