  • experimental by nature, with the persistence to keep trying new angles when the first answer doesn’t work
  • independent and self-motivated, able to carry projects forward with focus and care
  • obsessed with the user experience , from the first brushstroke to the final look
  • seeking long-term stability and growth in a role

galactic perks
