21T3 Virtual Showcase Perth - Studio 2

A b o u t m e

My name is Cerys and I’m a graphic designer. I was born in Wales in 1999 and grew up in a creative family and had a passion for art and computers from a young age. My family relocated to Australia later on.

While I was picking subjects for year 12, I decided on a whim to study a Cert II in Design. Throughout the course, I discovered my love and passion for graphic design and a bit of a natural talent for it. After leaving high school, I continued to do some casual graphic design work for my church and friends for a few years before deciding to start my Bachelor of Graphic Design at SAE Perth.

Since studying at SAE, I have grown more in skill and confidence. I have developed a soft, clean style with a little bit of funkiness. My favourite projects to work on are event collateral, layout design, branding and logo design. I am proficient in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and XD.
