I am an independent Type and Brand Designer, Lecturer, and Art Director from Kyiv, Ukraine, with 10 years of expertise in branding and an academic background that includes a Master’s degree and postgraduate specialization in Type Design in France.
As a brand designer and art director, I leverage my strategic vision, leadership skills, and typographic expertise to deliver creative solutions and ensure meticulous attention to detail across diverse international projects. As a type designer, I bring a unique cultural perspective to designing multiscript typefaces grounded in deep historical research of Ukrainian Cyrillic, while also creating custom fonts for brands and providing Cyrillic adaptations for multiscript projects. I also regularly lecture and consult on typography and Ukrainian Cyrillic, offering both academic and practical expertise.
