About me

I’m a lettering artist and surface designer based in Athens, Greece. I work with clients from a variety of industries, passionately creating unique lettering projects.

After studying graphic design in Athens and the London College of Printing, I started my career as an art director in advertising, focusing on print and packaging design. Eventually, I took a break to travel around the world. When I returned, I launched my own design studio.

Over time, my true passion for lettering took over. I expanded my skills through calligraphy and hand-lettering courses, and since then, all things letters bring me joy—whether Greek or English, old or new, vintage or modern, extra bold or super condensed.

My work is mostly digital with a love for colorful illustrations and vintage style. I recently started my journey into art licensing: my lettering designs and patterns are available for licensing for a wide range of products such as stationery and paper goods, home decor, gifting and tech accessories.

When I’m not working on creative projects, you’ll probably find me exploring new places, taking photos, browsing through bookshops and exhibitions, or enjoying coffee and cake.
