Hi, I’m Sula.
I am a curious, detail-oriented and passionate graphic designer. My greatest strengths lie in packaging design, branding, motion graphics and illustration. I am equally comfortable in digital and physical formats, display an excellent eye for color, and always enjoy teaching myself new skills.
Please poke about and feel free to contact me for any reason at all.
