I'm David—an award-winning Irish graphic designer with 8 years of expertise in branding, typography, and digital realms. Holding a B.A in communication design from Dublin and Valencia, I've spent 4 years refining my skills in Dublin-based design firms.
Now based in Lisbon, I remotely provide design services to HealthTech, Coffee, and Blockchain start-ups. My daily focus involves strategic brand development, creating branded collateral, guiding advertising art direction, and managing design partnerships across diverse projects. I thrive on creative challenges and cherish the opportunity to collaborate with extraordinary individuals.
