Location: Brooklyn, New York.

Duration: Five years.

Education: I studied graphic design at Middlesex University, and earned a BA in fashion illustration from University of the Arts London.

Big break: While in my first year of studies, I got a call from Tom Ford Beauty in the United States for a small project. Discovering that there was already interest and opportunity coming from such a big client was a huge boost to my confidence.

Influences: Architecture, Matisse, piano music and literature.

Proud moment: I loved doing the Sephora projects last year—the Butterfly campaign for Spring 2014 and the Fragrance IQ technology campaign. Both were multidisciplinary projects that came with lots of creative freedom—something you don't often find in branding work.

Work environment: Culturally, my environment is multifaceted. I was born in Athens, educated in London and now find myself in New York. I like to keep my home studio fairly empty—just two computers, my pencils and watercolors, and scented Diptyque candles.
