About
Hi, I'm Viktoria.
I'm a graphic designer and illustrator based in Halle (Saale), Germany. I create brands, books and print from the first idea to the print-ready file, ideally where illustration and design meet.
A degree in business informatics and years as a systems analyst and UX/UI designer taught me to work in a structured way: clear grids, considered systems and clean print files.
I'm looking for a full-time role in a team where design and illustration are thought of together.
