Hey!
I’m Izzie, a 24 year old from Oxfordshire, U.K. Living with Candian Citizenship here in Whistler, Canada. I am a multidisciplinary creative with an eye for detail, a passion for visual storytelling and being able to express that through multiple mediums; digital design, illustration, photography and videography. I would describe myself as inquisitive, energetic, adventurous and driven. I thrive off learning new skills and throwing myself into different and new experiences, from an ever-changing world to working on dynamic creative projects, I think it is crucial to have a diverse range of skills that I can bring to the team.
I'm always looking for new projects, adventures and to meet like-minded creatives, so if you have any enquiries, ideas or would just like to say hi, please get in contact.
